London Foccers Meet and Ride - March
#1
Right, to the best of my knowledge the plan is shaping up roughly in this fashion;

Some people will be meeting at Blackheath again before continuing on to the Oakdene Cafe where everyone else will meet and catch up. After that, its onwards to Dungeness lead by some helpful foccer (steeeve66) who knows the way Wink


TL;DR

When?
Sunday 3rd March 2013

Where?
Blackheath Tea Hut - SE3 0UA - 10.00-10.30
Oakdene Cafe - TN15 7RR - 11.00-11.30
Dungeness - TN29 9NA (ish) - 14.00-15.00

Route
Google Maps

Who?
Any foccer who wants to

Have fun n stay safe... See you in April.

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

Basically what Exupnut said - doesn't matter where you are from, all are welcome Smile If you feel like just meeting your fellow foccers then you can catch us at the Oakdene and riding on to Dungeness is entirely if you are up for it. Obviously the more the merrier  Big Grin

Any ride out will end up a fair bit out of London surely? This is only the second so there'll be one nearer soon enough? Just a thought; we could go 'clockwise'? The first was Southend, then Dungeness, then maybe Brighton, New Forrest, somewhere West, say Oxford? Etc? Just a thought.

I've a route worked out for Dungeness, will post it here shortly for all to look at.
