It might be the longest run but I’ve been down to the South coast and back from the Midlands over the weekend. So glad I got myself a cruiser, I’ve driven shorter distances and felt like hell. Aside from it being a little bit chilly at times it was a really good ride. |

Used to work for a company on the south coast while living in the Midlands. Would have to go down several times a year. Mostly okay, until it's winter and you only own a vented jacket! Brrrr. |

I've a cbr600, don't find it much a problem
I live in the Midlands (Near Redditch) and do most the rallies, Yorkshire Pudding, Farmyard, NABD, Swallow Falls, No Bull.
Also been touring 3x to Normandy where travel from Redditch to Portsmouth, 5 hours on ferry then 3 hours to chateu. Each day is about 6 hours riding around francs. Yeah my bum is numb, but you get use to it. LoL |

"Long runs is it worth getting a gel seat "
Not gel seat but highly recommend an 'AirRider' cushion. They are amazing and come with straps to fit over your bike seat. That have an ingenious system with a valve on the back, where you just press a button to inflate and release air pressure.
You don't need to recharge it, don't ask me how it works but the deflation and inflation is all self contained and very comfortable.
They're made in the UK too, South Shields. |
