Nov 10th Kent/Essex mid weeker.

Post by stevew »

OK Paul has hatched a cunning plan for this mid week ride. We are going to start in Kent and proceed through Essex and Suffolk to end up here;-
The David Silver Honda Collection, Unit 14, Masterlord Industrial Estate, Station Road, Leiston, Suffolk, IP16 4JD.
About 120 miles each way so it will be a long day. Going to have to leave early so we are back in the light (but be prepared for riding in the dark too)
Very 125 /Cub/ "L" plates friendly although ANY bike is welcome.

So far things look like this;-
Meet at MacDonald’s @ 0900
DA1 1YT
MacDonald's
Junction 1b (I think) of the M25 where the A225 crosses it.

Be early.....we are OFF at 0900

Nothing about this day out is going to be fast, so if that's what you want, don't come :o
OTOH if you think you would enjoy a midweek, slightly challenging, longer bimble we would love to see you.
There isn't a great deal of planning being put into this as it me and Paul.....which explains it all !!
We are competent riders used to leading groups of motorcyclists though and will guarantee to get you there ;)
We will be using the drop off route marking system. Check it out if you are not familiar with it please.

BTW it's a tenner to get in (might be able to get a reduction just depends how mant sign up) and best bring your own nosh !!

Hi Steve, I have been considering visiting David Silvers Museum for a little while now and this post has made my mind up. Due to my location, Tiptree near Colchester, I won't be meeting you at the start point but somewhere near me, if that's ok.
Once you have sorted a route out please let me know so that we can agree a suitable rendezvous.

Hi Dave, Would be nice to see you again. I was planning on taking the little 125 to give it an airing and will await Steves route to see where's best to meet up.

RR if you are awaiting my route it's often not done 'till i get to the start :roll:
Do you essex and other north places peeps want to give me a decent meeting venue (arrange it amongst yourselves) and i'll make sure we go through it. We can sort times later.

Oh if only peeps would pop their location in their signature life would be so easy :kiss:

Just an idea..............what about Maldon ??

Steve, Maldon will be fine by me, either at quay or Tesco's, where there is fuel. Alternatively, we could meet up in Colchester which would probably be convenient for both myself and scootypuff snr, if he can make it.
I will check posts nearer the time when hopefully will know for sure who is going.
