BotW is just up the road from me, so no fun. IF I can make it, then I'd prefer the plan as it stands.  But no Dunmow to Finchingfield road? Am disappoint  :(

*sigh*  That's my point.

Just one I'd like to do again before heading oop north, but I'll perhaps do it another time.

Soz took that the wrong way. Don't see why that little section can't be squeezed in.

Well, Harry's call, his route, and I'll be happy to go along with whatever is decided upon. But I think I'll have to replicate one of what used to be my regular rides out that way soon, probably starting at the Beach. Although, thinking about it, I'd have to start from Romford to get Gravel Lane and the Abridge to Theydon Bois road in too  :lol

I've already employed my slippery shoulders on this one.... the route is there for the making.  I don't know the area at all so relying on local knowledge from people, if I manage to get 18 foccers to Saffron for the start of my ride then that's my job complete LOL
