Yes, motorways are completely banned from the challenge… it’s a prescribed route although as you’ve seen getting lost adds to the fun! Bikes need to be 600quid or less or have a sentimental back story and also be a big ask to get running and made good enough for 1000 miles in 24hrs or in reality 2000ish miles in 3 days… mine fell into the last category, non runner with some serious issues and it was my old bike I had from new and sold 16years ago… been searching for it since the day I sold it
I’d highly recommend it mate, you’ll meet some amazing lads and lasses riding and at Pitstops! Aslong as you’re ok with big miles you’ll love it! Ace charity too!
Well done on that Dave
Enjoyed watching the whole saga in 1 go 👏🏼
Cheers Phil 👍
