Looking for ways across the South of England staying off main roads on my new KTM690

[Gnasher328]

Getting across the South is a drag as most of the roads lead from London, and even these are clogged with holiday traffic in the summer. I find the roads between the main ones are the most fun but it's easy (for me) to get lost as when they cross a main road and the continuation is often out of sight - so do I turn left or right!
After an afternoon of zig-zagging to and fro I decided it was time to fit the Garmin;-)

First stop on first ride - Shaftesbury, the road across Cranborn Chase is one of my favourites and there's a nice bakers that does coffee which you can take out and enjoy watching the world go by in the centre or go to 'Park Walk' with it's excellent views:-







My new toy! I got fed up with scrunching myself onto the 851 or bouncing around on increasingly rotten roads on my decreasingly reliable Harley. I always found myself missing my trusty CRF -



so I am hoping this will be the UK counterpart -

Nice but pricey



Your guess is as good as mine!



The sort of roads I'm looking to link up

Own bathroom. Cleanish new place, how much a night average?

You enjoy the same type of roads that I do Tim, much more enjoyable then the boring wide open ones
