You can still use the Dartford Tunnel as that's not a motorway.

As you're coming so close to me it would be rude not to join in!
At the moment I'm free both days and it would be good to meet you

Updated the map again for the start to be at the finish as it will be easier to get fuel before the long ride.

Could be me, could be you, but that route looks a little short now.

Looks fine to me Stephen!
Looking at the route and my comments about it being too long. I could chip off at Sible Hedingham as that's the closest point to home.
There is a petrol station there if anyone needs fuel.
Btw the date is July not June, unless you're going today!

Always think it's great when someone takes the initiative and organises something, though it can be difficult to please everyone with a route.
Not sure if this will be at a suitable point in the ride, maybe, but there's a posh Tea place on the A10 (S/bound) right near the current route that may be a suitable stopping point. I've used before but it isn't a dedicated biker place and not what you'd call budget!
