  • Seems kind of a dumb time to be doing things like this.

    I was going to mention that. It seems a North America focused thing, and the restrictions are a lot less there.

    Completely unworkable for Wales/Scotland at the moment. Tricky for England (as you're not supposed to sleep anywhere other than your primary residence, so planning a 24h ride with some bivvying at the end is probably not going to go down well with the authorities.)

    Who knows what will be in place in 5 weeks or so though.

  • not supposed to sleep anywhere other than your primary residence

    Where's that documented? There's so many frickin' guidance files on gov.uk I have no idea what I'd even look at.

    "
    Essential travel does not include visits to second homes, camp sites, caravan parks or similar, whether for isolation purposes or holidays. People must remain in their primary residence. Not taking these steps puts additional pressure on communities and services that are already at risk.
    "

    Obviously this doesn't apply to essential journeys (i.e. key workers who stay nearby work somewhere, or essential business travel [not sure what kind of business travel is essential right now]) or children whose parents live apart, etc.

    (Of course it's not explicitly clear. Tories wouldn't want to be pinned down on anything in particular would they!)
