Hull - Bridlington- Yarm - Ingleton - Sheffield - Hull; it's a 317-mile lap, so you'd need to add a bit on. And I think it owuld be a struggle to do that, with the 15 or 16 stops needed, inside 24 hours.You just got silly at a lap of Yorkshire.....
Already exists as the BISSI, (British Isles Saddle Sore Insanity) only completed by Kevin and Lynn. (It can be completed a bit at a time) I think Chris K had a go at the Welsh section but gave up on his second lap after following a Gritter for miles and chipping ice off his visor.If we had a dictator, I have a feeling it would be Kim Jon Wrong-Un...
Yes, it does bring home how limited we are for long rides; I think the Full Monty is the best of what we've got, and it's difficult to see what else we could come up with. There's scope for some additional named rides - a Ride Around Yorkshire SS1000, for example. Or maybe a special award for someone doing an SS1000 in each of England, Scotland, Wales and NI. The Welsh one would be particularly challenging as the obvious road to make it a lap - south from Wrexham - strays into England around Oswestry. For NI, you'd need to devise a lap of around 200-250 miles; the challenge there would be the number of stops you'd need on each lap, and the relatively slow average speed on the roads.

The Irish section is just that, Ireland.
