Looking at that night section on a reversed Flatliner, it's hardly any further to go to Boston from Kirton via Lincoln, Metheringham, Billinghay and Holland Fen. Much easier navigation on A/B roads, mostly, and usefully there's the 24 hour garage on the Burton Road roundabout in Lincoln [since there will have been nothing but an atm for p-o-p in Kirton]...Got to climb Canwick Hill though - hmm thought a reverse route got us out of that!

Then McD's in Boston and the choice of Spalding or Whittlesey for a 'spoons breakfast [or both - Huggy I'm looking at you - can you beat your record from this year's Flatlands?]

The only Wetherspoons opportunity that Ted and me missed out on with our 4 'spoons visits was a morning coffee at the Ivy Wall in Spalding, maybe that one could make up for the curry not being available in Kirton this time around  ::-)

Bonne Route et Bon Courage to all the Essex Boys.

See you at the bike check/start/finish or somewhere on the road to/from Brest. The Newhaven-Dieppe group will be somewhere in the fleshpots of St Quentin on Friday and Saturday evenings - we may be able to meet up...
