HERO RIDE 2014 - The Tartan Express - Edinburgh to London
Event info
Raising funds for Help for Heroes, the Edinburgh to London Hero Ride 2014 covers 440 miles travelling almost the entire length of the country, so be prepared for some long days in the saddle! The route has a military theme passing by Army and RAF bases including Catterick Garrison, home to Phoenix House, one of our regional Recovery Centres. You'll be riding alongside some of the guys and gals who have benefitted from the help offered here and at our other recovery centres.

It offers some left-hook prevention (good) and they have put some physical dividers in at the entrances / exits (also good) - but not everywhere. ...
Brexit is also why a lot of EU police forces issue on the spot fines.
Like so?
