Are you the very model of a modern Major General?

hehe, not quite. My dad was in the air force though if that counts?

Out of curiosity Tom, whats the problem you're trying to solve by finding this out?

Can only think of trying to find a good location for a warehouse from three suppliers?

OK. I'm in training for a mega bike ride. Two others, who live 5 miles and 20 miles away from me are also in training for said ride.

It would be nice if we could find a point that is the same distance away for all of us so that we could ride there when we meet up to start out training rides.

That way, we would have all covered the same distance.

The trouble is, we are all more or less in a line, with one of them 5 miles away from me in one direction, and one 20 miles away in the other.

If you actually want road miles, rather than as the crow flies, might be easier to use a navigation tool.

For instance, assume this goliath link works:

http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?saddr=daventry&daddr=A428+to:Northampton+to:A428+to:rugby&hl=en&sll=52.30016,-1.08384&sspn=0.173209,0.528374&geocode=FcFiHQMdbTnu_ymR8xCs-BN3SDG1Oihf-1D9kQ%3BFSR0HgMd6Ozv_w%3BFV0gHQMdADry_ylzokpuIwR3SDEJYujZ0JX0zQ%3BFWV2HgMdW-vv_w%3BFb4dHwMdeLLs_ynpV4zAXxV3SDHDQZ7K2_u8AQ&t=h&dirflg=h&mra=dme&mrsp=1&sz=12&z=12

Drag B & D together, until the miles at the bottom of each subsection are about equal.

It's just occurred to me how to do it.

I am a genius btw. (Christ, I hope I've spelled genius right).

Are we there yet?
