AndrewElvisFan Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Lol! Don't care. Taught me discipline! Besides I remember completing a 50 mile hike around Swanton Morley once, 1 checkpoint before the end and a load of hard arse regiment types were nursing their poorly blisters!! Never went to Benson though - helicopters were never my thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewElvisFan Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 I'm near Duxford - about 5 mins from the IWM. If going by cage I'd use the M11 then A14 and then up the A1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

obriens65 Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 This is 230 miles one way for me so I'll be giving it a miss I think. If you're planning something a little (lot) further south It would be great to meet you all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
