But what I always wanted to know is what is the difference/relation between the A1 and the A1(M)

i like east england, the a1 is the demarcation. i like the sloping houses near doncaster, i like where it veers to the east near retford/newark, i like where you peel off, to sneak up on finchley from behind, i like archway, i like that its relatively near goole, i like when travelling north late at night, you switch on to the m62 at ferrybridge.
its possible that i like the M180 better sometimes, but it isn't as iconic, and doesnt have the feel of going anywhere

i used to live on the B1462 itself (never thought i'd miss it as much as i do now, its my nostalgia road)
off the A1201 had its good times too
near the B102 (but i dont think it will take on a special significance this time, i dont feel the attachment)

A1 has roundabouts (but slowing down, gear changes, etc. help keep you awake.) 5(?) lane bit north from Alconbury is grebt, once nearly hit the windscreen when the engine choked as my speed topped 100mph without me realising I was going anywhere near that fast.

A1 crosses those coool counties Rutland & Lincolnshire.

The A1 was the fishing road all throughout my teens.

I love the new Ferrybridge A1(M)/M62 interchange that's opening next year. Lots of exciting-looking flyovers.

Now I pick the A23 because I'm going to live just a little bit further away from it.

i realised, since i have lived in london, i have never lived more than 3 miles from the a1. in my life, i dont think i have lived more than 30 miles from the a1, its the backbone of everything. i like how its possible to drive for hundreds of miles down the a1 and it comes almost to my doorstep
i currently live about 300 yards from the a1
