Pistonheads run?

[426Hemi]

As far as I know, there are no speed cameras along this route.
But will make sure I double check.

Anyone know how camera-free are these routes ...?

Not aware of any cameras on decent NSL stretches of roads in Herts or Beds (although a few in villages/30/40mph limits). There are some great roads round here if you know where to look.

Examples: A507 from Baldock to Buntingford (I stress that part is imense, but, strangely, the rest is quite boring); B656 Welwyn to Hitchin; B655 Hitchin to Barton le Clay; various B and unclassified roads between Hitchin/BLC and Old Warden type area; B1039 from Barley to Wendens Ambo; B1051 from Thaxted to Stanstead Mountfitchet; B1004 from Bishop's Stortford to Much Hadham (and to a lesser extent, beyond); B180 from Widford to Stanstead Abbotts; B158 from Hertford to Potters Bar (perhaops slightly overated locally, but a great route in from London/M25 type area nonetheless).

Hopefully i'll have something decent from work...

Definitely up for this depending on whether I’ve found a car to buy!

Currently in London: cash rich; car poor.

Oggs! Your thread has arrived...

The Dunstable Hoon seems to be regarded as the best run
