The route that i am looking at taking will be the A21 to Tunbridge wells, then the A267 via Wessons Cafe, then off to Hastings. Ride home will be via Rye i reckon.
Cheers, got it. What Bike do you ride? Don't want to ask too many people if they're you.

Oooooo will be easy to spot then Mine isn't all that special and unique, but will be down there nonetheless. Ah wait I have a small dent in the left hand side of the tank. Thats pretty unique!! So blue naked pointy with a few extras on, see the signature, also with added small dent which I still havn't forgiven myself about.

Just a quick heads up to all attending, remembered about it just a minute ago. Watch where you park when you get into Hastings. Most places are parking spots, its a kind of park wherever you can find a spot you can fit in. No traffic wardens around as far as I know, last year I parked on the edge of a roundabout. But to those parking in the middle of the road, it can be done over the hatched areas, but I advise you not to. The main road along the seafront where everyone gathers is still open to cars, coaches, lorries, everything. Last year several struggled along the seafront squeezing between the bikes parked on the side and in the middle of the road and apparantly 3 bikes were knocked over, I rescued one by picking it up off the sidestand myself, if I didn't, it would have gone down. So careful where you go.

Has it always said let me check my dairy or has that been changed?
