I am from Lincoln. Loads of great roads and not far from Cadwell park and Blyton Park. Did a track day at Cadwell on my CCM not long ago and plan to take the Vap there soon. :D

Welcome to the Raptor Chapter Mark - If you saw the other V-Rap around Lincoln on Friday it might have been me en route to my better half's house. (She has a V-Rap as well :mrgreen:)

Get stuck in and have a laff, and come and say hello at East Kirkby in July :thumbsup:

Some very nice roads over the Wolds, especially Caistor High Street, running Horncastle to the A46, and over Bluestone Heath, over Cadwell way. Have been looking at Blyton for a trackday, but it looks a bit fast for me :oops:

I do know of a V-Raptor over Grantham way but if it was the 18th it probably was Weirdo as he gets lost a lot and hooks up on the nearest main road to somewhere hoping the petrol lasts :haha:
so many roads to travel - so many ways to get lost!
