This page contains links to some old Route's for the 'Roman Ride' of the early 1980's. These are ideas for winter rides with a bit of twist, cryptic clues to locations on the ride; you need to photograph the item/location. You will need to plan the routes with maps of the 'Period' that is to say, 'Pre 1980' a GPS for these rides will be a distinct DISADVANTAGE.
I have definitive answers for the first 6 rides, but not for the remaining 4 with hopefully another 10 to be added when I have time. You will need to take 4 photographs for each ride; Start location, the two clue items/sites and End location if you want me to validate them, just for fun I may add. All mileages are approximate.
