the hamster Posted September 3, 2012 Report Posted September 3, 2012 Ok, this is my back yard so i'll tell you the best B-Road blat (also voted by MCN as the 4th and 5th best biking roads in the UK).Market Harborough to Melton on the B6047, get into melton and then make your way onto the B676, Melton to Colsterworth. Continue from Colsterworth to Corby Glen and take the B1176 back to Grantham. Its around 50 miles, and its better than the nurburgring! Quote
forest4ever Posted September 3, 2012 Report Posted September 3, 2012 I did the B6047 from Market Harbourough every day for around six months.....In a Vivaro Van...and that was fun...especially the big dip..... :hot: Quote
ant Posted September 3, 2012 Report Posted September 3, 2012 i know that areas roads welljust be on the lookout for psycho bikers as they really love it out that way too and can be abit mental Quote
