My friend and I are planning a short two day cycling trip over the bank holiday weekend - it will be a first for both of us, so we're quite excited
The plan is to head up the Exe valley into Mid-Devon, then West across the hills (there will be a lot of those, I think) before dropping South to Okehampton, where we'll head into Dartmoor to find a nice pub for the evening followed by a night of wild camping. The next day we'll head down the West edge of the moor before crossing right over on the high road and heading back home. The route will look something like this:

Mapmyride thinks 10446ft of ascent in 118 miles, so it will definitely be challenging! Hopefully we'll have some good weather and get some nice piccies to put up when we're done.
