    No idea yet! I'll work it out with the SatNav later this week and let you know.

    SatNav says it'll take me about 3.5 hours. What time would you like to leave from Oxford?

    I'm quite easy, I guess I can be all ready by 10.00 am after walking my son to school, although in no hurry to set off that early if it doesn't fit in with you. If you want to leave earlier obviously no worries.

    As you have already ridden 3.5 hours you are more than welcome to stop off here (Abingdon) for a coffee, or meet up at Oxford services (where ever they are?) or somewhere else convenient.

    if you programme this in the sat nav you could swing by and hook up with me,nicer way to get to oxford than through bedford,or if you like I could meet you at st neots or bedford.
