I am setting off in an hour or so to ride to my BIL's 50th party - marquee, hog roast, beer, music.

Do I ride the most direct route -14 miles - 680 feet climbing (horrible road/lots of cars/blind corners) - Route A

A scenic, still quite direct but very quiet route - 16 miles - 700 feet climbing - Route B

A slightly more scenic but still reasonably direct (and very quiet) route - 15 miles - 600 feet climbing - Route C

Or do I ride the path never before ridden, not really direct, but reasonably quiet, and very scenic - 25 miles 1100 feet climbing - Route D

Get a taxi then you can get 5hit faced and worry about how you are going to get back on your bike.

Please, if an overwhelming number of you plumb for Route D do it quickly as i'd like to factor in a shandy pit stop at the http://www.pipeandglass.co.uk/

Which ever gets you there quickest, there's free beer at the other end. Priorities CP priorities.
