Nice blast down to Rye Harbour, not too much traffic, lots of bikes out.
From Rye we went to Hedcorn Aerodrome for a classic tractor show, don't ask it was Dazza's idea, watched some skydivers but then whilst sipping my southern shandy a Spitfire decided to drop in and carry out a number of very low, and I mean low, flypasts with some aerobatics thrown in, god what a sight and sound.
Another blast through the lanes upto Herne Bay to watch some totty before a quick blast to Whitstable for shellfish and more totty watching.
Finally a further blast through the lanes before parting company with Dazza at the M2, a quick motorway blast home to Essex. Did about 260 miles total, the final 60 odd motorway miles at high speed used almost a half tank of fuel.
Dazza has some photos and a video of the spitfire.
All in all a cracking day out, thanks to Dazza for leading
