Hastings May Day run - Mon 7th May

Post by mottza »

Each year there is the Hastings May Day run where thousands of two wheelers head down to the south coast from Locksbottom, Kent.

Me and the old man are going and you are welcome to join us.

There's lots of stands when you get there and we plan to take a ride via Rye, A268, A229 on the way back.

The ride leaves at 9.30-10ish so plan to meet there at 9:15. To get the there go to the A21 meets the A232 (Crofton Road). http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=locksbo ... m&t=m&z=17

Hopefully the X9 will make it unlike the Leonardo that decided to part company with the exhaust and leak oil from the shockers. I'm sure it was something to do with the scoot going round to 30,000kms that day lol!

I'll be there... and this time I'll just follow Richie. That way I'll not get tricked by anyone else losing their way resulting in me getting lost because I followed them.

There's one at the start and they'll be plenty on the A21.

Funky, I'll be at the back and you can all follow Richie on his speed machine.

The Liberty will have at least a 100 mile range and this is SE England so we're not in the sticks!
