Keith, I'm assuming you'll go round the top of the M25. What sort of time are you going over and do you know where you're going?

Well, here's the plan...

Finish work about 4:30
Load the bike
Leave around 5:30
Ride round the M25 to Essex
Put my tent up around 7:30
Get some food
Start drinking

I've been there a few times now, but I'll be using the satnav for the last bit.

Never mind then. I'm leaving at lunchtime. I'll probably get there about the same time as you though!

If you're leaving Alton at lunchtime you could reach Essex before I finish work unless you take a very scenic route.

Got to Essex got off the m25 junction 29 and low and behold got lost....
Went back home and came back in the car with sat nav....
Everyone was on the rideout except one copper coloured sv650 next to some tents, on the right as you enter the camp site......
Hope everyone had a great day/weekend.
Note to self, get a bike sat nav.
