I despair sometimes…..🤷‍♀️

I now have enough to do ,without more things to get stuck into

Like posting on CT🤣🤣🤣🤣

Seriously, why swerve it when you’d gain from using such devices?

I believe there is an API that will provide distances and journey times for a matrix of multiple origins and destinations using Google Maps. So that it might be quite feasible to do exactly what you suggest with the help of that API and a well designed Excel workbook model. It would have a cost though.

But, given that someone, somewhere, sometime must have identified, manually or otherwise, the nearby sites for each site in point, it would not be that hard to identify those nearby, by virtue of a straight line, but otherwise requiring a long or complex journey.  There won't be that many of them. You could make each site owner responsible for the list of nearby sites. That would make it very simple indeed.   

I suspect there isn't the will for change on this because it's not exactly a huge issue; one could argue that, in any case, it depends on how you define nearby - nearby being the actual word used on the site page. A site 10 miles away is undoubtedly nearby; the fact that you need to be able to fly to justify such an epithet might be said by some to be neither here nor there.

The question I then ask myself is: if the club were to adopt actual driving distance, do they drop the offending site from the nearby list or do they instead leave it in and quote the actual driving distance? Hmmm,  interesting!

 Have had a look at the Searchforsites website, tda. There are a couple of days to look for what you are after on it.

 I guess the OP was related to Moss-side Farm then!

John Paul Jones I think Nellie😁 Either way, JPJ or Moss side, it’s 70 plus miles🤣 

Tour is coming together nicely using a variety of stops. The main driver for locations is linking up nice places to see, nice cycling territory and close proximity to some good beaches, without having to backtrack back to a Site. Doing this, we will get further West. Historic Scotland still haven’t sorted out the conservation on their buildings yet, a good deal are still only viewable from the outside, so we won’t be spending as much time looking round their properties. However, this means we can concentrate on a few more gardens, and some HHA stuff, in between bike rides. Wet suits will go as well, it’s a tad cool for sea dipping in May🥶 

And a first aid kit for me. OH has fitted a rear view mirror to his bike, he got a stiff neck looking out for me last time out, and he likes early warning if I fall off…….again🤣

I really do think that some of you are behind the times thinking of having to DRIVE round the Firths and other similar  inroads to the coast !

Just thank 'evans you don't live on the Isles of Scilly where their only bank has announced that it will be closing ( if it has not already done so ).  No matter in the big scheme of things 'cos it's only about 50 miles to the next one  --  that's if you have a sea-worthy motorcar !!  Flying might be a tad longer and take longer too,  but about £ 120 or so is rather more than a tank of diesel's best !! Not forgetting that the Scillonian is taken out of service in November until well into the New Year, or it was last time I looked.

So think yourselves lucky my friends

Memory Map do it, so the software is out there.
