I have some green credentials having been closely associated with the installation of the wind turbine at Allendale Golf Club, but the truth is that I am more Jeremy Clarkson than James Lovelock, more Ghia than Gaia. The journey from green to tee is therefore central to this book, satisfying a desire for both open fairways and open roads. The journey north becomes progressively more spectacular such that between the Vernal and Autumnal equinoxes it is a journey into the light. Put your foot to the floor and enjoy the ride. The recommended route tries to avoid motorways, dual carriageways, and major conurbations. Do not use a satnav, get out a folding roadmap, best suited for examining, unfolded, across the warm bonnet of a rag top or hot coupé.
