Longest Motorway Journey in the UK?
Discussion
Exeter (start of M5), upto Bristol and the M4, across to London, around the M25 to the M1 upto Rugby and the start of the M6 all the way to Glasgow and then across to Edinburgh.
I'd have to look at a map to see what motorways spur off from Edinburgh, is there any A1(M) back towards Newcastle?

That isn't a 'sensible' route. Plus you leave motorway at a number of points.I'd have to look at a map to see what motorways spur off from Edinburgh, is there any A1(M) back towards Newcastle?

What is the longest journey that one can make on UK motorways? A 'sensible' trip. No going round the M25 for the heck of it. Keep going in the same general direction.
I suggest from near Folkestone on the M20 to near Dunblane on the M9. I think it's about 508 miles
Other way round the M42 for 510 miles?I suggest from near Folkestone on the M20 to near Dunblane on the M9. I think it's about 508 miles

How about: M20, M26, M25. Leave and go along the M4 towards Bristol. then NORTH on M5 to Birmingham, back south on M40 towards M25. Once back on M25 head clockwise to J21, take the M1 NORTH, join the M6 at the very start (J18??) to continue rest of the way.
Not a single piece of road used twice.

Slightly against the OP's rules though of "heading in the same general direction" - going North then South then North again just to eat miles isn't so good. Not a single piece of road used twice.

Falls foul of the OP's " Keep going in the same general direction" Not a single piece of road used twice.
