As at 1752 Saturday - Wales is now declaring T4 lockdown from midnight tonight so Wrexham's out.

"south east" - that's a loose term and not accurate definition of T4

I believe that you're T4 but I'm T2

Lots of noise about cross-border travel between England/Scotland but no, as far as I can tell, actual law in force at present.

I'm inclined to cancel Dumfries though just because.

We can still do a 400 mile ride between sunrise/sunset but we'll have to stick to England. Maybe touch England/Wales & England/Scotland borders though.

Reluctantly, I'm pulling out of this, sorry about that.

It would be illegal for us to cross into Wales. It may or may not be illegal for us to cross into Scotland - I can't tell**
I plotted a new route merely touching the borders of Scotland and Wales without crossing either but, with all the T3/T4 dodging, it would be a lengthy and dull ride and I'm going to do a longer but more interesting (and entirely legal) ride to visit my daughter in Cornwall instead.

If your bookings are cancellable you have until 1300 today to cancel Norwich and 1300 tomorrow to cancel Dumfries.

Go for a fun, legal, ride by yourself :(


** I can't tell whether or not a simple act is illegal. Me, chief pedant!
