    To celebrate my 70th birthday: a road trip from Land's End to John O'Groats in 'Riley Blue', a 1963 Riley One-Point-Five. To make the trip more interesting we decided to drive using B-roads as much as we possible and to make it more interesting we navigated the whole way using tulip diagrams.

    We didn't hurry, travelling around 200 miles a day which is close to Riley Blue's range on a full tank of fuel. Overnight halts were in Trowbridge, Chesterfield, Haltwhistle, Blairgowrie and Dingwall.

    We raised over £3,000 for two local hospitals; Weston Park Hospital in Sheffield and The Royal Hospital in Chesterfield, calling in at both en-route.

    If the route from Sheffield to Holmfirth meanders, it's because we we'd entered the local 'Tally Ho!' charity drive in aid of Weston Park Hospital that started from the hospital and followed its route until the lunch halt. Other than that, we were on our own the whole way.

    About the Calorie Calculator

    Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.

    When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.

    Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
