10. At the roundabout, take the 2nd exit onto A17 heading to SleafordGo through 3 roundabouts

The A46 from Leicester is a real pain in the *** due to major road works + 40 mph through the road works.. M42 A52 the better option in my book. ithink the route we took last time was far better talk to you guys on Sunday.;)

Hi Mick I feel the route we took last year would be the best option as it will keep us off the A46. We can talk to Lynden, Rob n Steve Devilish at chasewater to see what they think.:D
