Sorry guys, but I don't understand this bit about the roads around the H & H.

It's not as though it's the back of beyond - with the exception of Green Lane itself (even this isn't too bad) the pub is served by main roads all around - absolutely no different to The Hawk.

Definately much nicer ride than the A130! the only problem for me is that I don't think the NSLs are lit at night?? (I would be heading back through Latchingdon up towards Maldon) and my light isn't much good It wouldn't stop me coming though

I rode home friday night at 1am, and the ride was enjoyable, but very sedately paced.

full beam on most of the way and was no problem.

A few observations with regard to the previous posts
1. How often do we have a meeting if the weather is bad?
2.When we do have meetings in the winter time how many of you who have cars use
them?

3.How frequently do you attend the Hawk?
4.Caddy,Since the change in your domestic circumstances and moving how often
have you attended on the bike?
5.Ian, How many times since June 2007 have you actually attended?
6.How many people ride home completely alone the whole journey?
7.JW,You like myself tend to use the car if the weather is likely to change for the
worse
8.Compare the ease of parking
9.Quality and quantity of the food and service provided
10. Facilities i.e Toilets on ground level and place for the smokers amongst us
11. It may be further to reach for some but nearer or similar for others.

I am not saying it is ideal for everybody but if you want a suggestion for another venue that is on a main road,easy to find,with accommodation next door,there is the Pub and Premier Inn at Boreham on the main A12.

I have not predudicely singled out any individuals but made observations regarding comments made
and apologies in advance if I have caused offense

Ah, ok - it's not a smiley that I'm familiar with & there's no 'explanation when you touch it with the mouse.
