Jimbo & I will be doing a run to Finchingfield and beyond that I have done many times starting from our side of the world so will not to conflict with the other run already posted.

Pace - Brisk not daft - plenty of scope for extreme ploughing Laughing

Start location - this is very close to the M25/J4 so easy access for most people.

Esso Garage here:-



08:15 for a 08:30 prompt start - full tanks - tunnel toll is free.

We will do a boring bit on the M25 to the A12 turn off then the fun starts. This is a similar round robin route to the ones Mouse & Matt used to do - quite challenging.

Brunch at some stage in Finchingfield.

08:15 for a 08:30 prompt start - back about 14:00

All subject to weather of course.

Well that didn't go according to plan :-(

Let me know if you are out and about later, seeing as I am already cold and damp having got to J4 and turned around :-(

Took a chance with the weather about 14:00 and managed not to get wet and get a good run in down to Rye - thanks for the company Jim.

Roughie - sorry you had a bit of a wasted journey - we will do the Essex run soon - be great to have you along - bloody weather.

Thanks for the lead Bob. We were lucky with the weather in the end.

Sorry we didn't invite you this afternoon Roughie, it was a bit spur of the moment!.

I crashed the RSV though! I was doing 0mph and missed my footing coming out of the pub car park (no, I wasn't drunk). A couple of scratches to polish out. I laid it down ever so gently, I was taught by Tusky the Master Laughing .

Especially with Madam on the back at the top of a grassy slope.
Vety elegant.
Firkin gravelly pub car parks.
