If you were to enter one that was a reasonable cost, what would you want from it in terms of the ride / distance, I'm guessing a "scenic" route might help but probably not the deciding factor ... what else would you like that'd make you say I fancy doing that??
I like rides that have good rest stops along the way and a great dinner afterwards.
