Did about 80miles from Ferry Lane Rainham to SoS, via Burnham. Took about 2 hours but I was not rushing too much, is that enough miles for everyone remembering personal milage getting to either the Ace or Blackheath and return journey?
Sounds good to me. Long range weather forecast is a bit touch and go. about 10C, London might get rain, Southend is forecast dry though.
I'm in Dagenham, don't mind meeting at Blackheath or Thurrock. Guess a lot depends on route back over the river from Blackheath:- Blackwall tunnel, Woolwich ferry or Dartford tunnel. Never done ferry before - could be a laugh!
TBH the ride from A13 through Blackwall tunnel to Tea hut is only 4.5 miles / 9 minutes according to Google. Not too big a detour for you Ace lot.
