A21  Bromley Common. Turn R Oakley Road onto
A233  Biggin Hill, Westerham.
Smoke break by the green and 2nd meet point
B2026  Edenbridge, Maresfield. Turn L onto
A22  to next roundabout. 2nd exit onto
A272  (Haywards Heath) North Chailey. Turn L onto

4th Stop Coffee Break at Rykers Cafe, Box Hill.
A25  Westerham, Bromley and Home for my Tea

NB: There will be places where your Fazer will be able to stretch it's legs. But also remember there will be riders of differing rider ability. It is not a race through the countryside. And slower riders will not be left behind. The run will officially end at Box Hill as I think most people will know their way home from there.

Total miles....




Aint got a clue but it's an average ride out for a Sunday.

Stick your names below. Let me know if you'r turning up at Blackheath or Westerham and I'll PM you my number.

Some say that he eats habanero chilli peppers dipped in oil of capsaicin for extra bite and that his pyjamas are made from Nomex. All we know is, he's called Ad the Bad

I presume that's for Brum. Bad luck, Red! See you up there hopefully! How early is early though? Looks like the Runnymede lot and the Ace lot are meeting at the Peartree Interchange at 11am before going on up to Brum. Would you be able to make it there?
