NW200 Log D11.2

After that short stop at Toddington I was back on the road, arriving home at 14:10. Having had my say about the driving on the M1, the Prick of the Day Award surely goes the the guy in the Prius in the outside lane of the M25, who would brake at every gantry showing a speed camera sign, despite only travelling at 70mph! Needless to say, there were a number of unhappy punters behind him, who eventually undertook him, as he also refused to move into any of the other lanes.

A couple of times the traffic almost came to a standstill and I encountered the usual whilst filtering, despite having the fog lights on besides the halos. Never ceases to amaze me how a massive juggernaut can find room to let you pass but a small family hatchback takes up nearly the entire lane. Hey ho! 

The weather was very good for almost the entire journey, until I got within about 15 miles of home, when I encountered a few spots of rain. Big drops but too few to make much difference. All in all, the weather on the trip has been first class, always a bonus on two wheels.

And so, after 10 days, my NW200 trip is over. I'll post some stats, soon as I have them collated and hopefully get some photos added too. Unfortunately, the blogger app doesn't seem to recognise photos from the phone's gallery only those taken as you write the post, hence the lack of any pics during these logs. Maybe it's the app, maybe it's just me. I'll try and sort it in time for my NC500 trip in August.

  1. Same for me. Can't attach pics with app. Have downloaded a new one called Bloggeroid that does work.
