  1. Explore the Costswolds on this 190-mile route, taking in Stratford Upon Avon, Uffington White Horse, Avebury and finishing up in beautiful Bath. Doable in a day, there are some great places to stay en route if you wanted to make more of your trip.

  2. The North Coast 500 is well known among bikers. A stunning 516-mile route around the Scottish coast, the route features castles, beaches and historical ruins! The North Coast 500 starts and ends at Inverness Castle, whilst also taking in Ullapool, Durness, John O’Groats, Dornoch and Inverness. Head to Northcoast500 for help planning your road trip. As this a popular route and passing spots can be scarce, it may also be worth looking at alternative routes before you set off. Roads around Moffat and out towards Stranraer are a great option, but there’s also plenty of spectacular riding around the Cairngorms.
  3. The A39 is one of the longest roads in the South West and connects Bath with Falmouth. 197 miles long, the route has a spectacular section between Minehead and Barnstaple, which includes some incredibly steep hills, considerable cliff-top roads, and views of the stunning Exmoor scenery. There are also some amazing pubs along the coast if you want to stop to refuel! Motorbike route a39

  5. The ‘Cat and Fiddle’ route is another well known road.

Given the popularity of the Cat and Fiddle, the sharpness of the bends and the frequent straying livestock on the road, the road can be hazardous Find more information here if you need help with planning your trip. motorbike route - Cat and fiddleWhere are you planning to head on your motorbike this summer?
