Who fancys a jolly boys outing to the seaside ?...margate meltdown coming up at the end of the month , a well attended event in aid of THE ROYAL BRITISH LEGION , there is an official ride out from THE ACE CAFE but its a boring route for obvious reasons , A406 M25 A13 A2 M2 A299 , dont want to do that , was thinking of heading to box hill, surrey if anyone wants to meet up and then parhaps pick up others on route.......be an early start and a long day but if this weather holds out its going to be a cracker

Hi Red,
I'd be up for that. Would have thought the Oakdene might be a better rendezvous as you'd be in Kent to start. Could go Wateringbury,Headcorn, Charing,Canterbury,Margate. Just a thought, plenty of time to plan. Just got in from May Day Run, absolutely melting.

Evening ROBBO...yep , was thinking that aswell . Trying to get a few new faces along and thought suggesting box hill would cover a larger area and attract more people .kents not an interedting route when you live 30 due west from london
too long winded to go north so has to be south , as you say early days , will dig the map out and have a look at your suggestion
anyone else interested , be great to see some new faces .....

Hi Red,
That's fair enough. I'm sure you'll come up with some geographical magic

Morning foccers.......just looking at the map and ROBBO's suggestion of meeting at oakdene looks good , I can aviod the M25 by picking up the A25 at dorking which will more or less take me straight to oakdene......close to jct 2A M26....
Good for ROBBO + MR KRAZY...wrong way for DAZZA though , do you mind a few extra miles DAZZA for a 8am meet at oakdene cafe ?.....or would you rather meet somewhere more convenient ?
anyone else interested is more than welcome to tag along , route and times not set in stone yet and iam sure they will change through the coures of the day , in true FOCU style

Red,
That's fine for me. However it will be too early for Dazza due to work. When he sees your post he'll be able to suggest a rendezvous place/time no doubt.
PM for you.

Yeh thought as much ROBBO....tis a bit early but I was thinking of having a bit of brekkie at oakdene before leaving for margate , could always meet him on route , expect the old feller will be along shortly....not heard from mr krazy yet either.....
next time HH......

Hello Red, going to do my best to get there. 8am is a bit optimistic but going to be around that ballpark.
Even if I get there at 9 after you've had a munch.
I'll try and plan my night shift so I finish earlier.
Still waiting to hear if my brother can make it but he will be in the same boat as he's working too.

A good days riding with great company , great effort by dazza for getting a day out between two night shifts
Beautifull sunshine at margate , and great fish and chips at hearn bay......a great day out , cheers everyone , just what I needed
276 miles for me , iam west of london and was going to come home straight through the centre of london soon changed my mind when i saw the traffic on the M2.....switched to A279 , M20 , M26 , M25 and M40......boring ride home but needed to be home for 6ish ...just about made it

Thanks Red for a brilliant day.
A mere 182 miles for me. Stopped off at Headcorn for a beer and watched complete nutters jumping out of airplanes. The Tuono needed another fill up to get home whereas the mighty faze did the day on a tankful.
Thanks again, look forward to the next one.
