Yesh of course, I'll even meet you en route early in the morning and find a scenic route.

Happy days, can never do a road too much

The Ace is about 70 miles away from Burnham. And who wants to do the North Circular on a ridout.

It's a cafe that serves beer and welcomes bikers. It's a good place to meet.

I bet the Squiddler could come up with a route......

Just head West till you hit the M1, then a fast run to the A406 then round - simple :P

but then we would miss the chance of the Seaside.....

I was thinking of an early start and Ace Cafe for breakfast, followed by a fast ride to the venue (probably A1, then M25, A12, A414, or M25, M11, A414). Then you've got the rest of the day to play, without tents etc. weighing your bike down.

From the Ace, you could also go A1, then A414 most of the way there.

I don't think I'd escape alive if I planned the AR route around a lunchstop at the Ace Cafe !!

So. I'll have to disappoint you I'm afraid.

As for the seaside, I'm still debating (with myself so it's not a mass debate) whether to include Saafffend Seafront as an afternoon coffee / ice-cream stop - bearing in mind the time of year, traffic & parking could be somewhat of a problem - my thinking at the moment is that a mini rideout could be organised for Sun morning for any who wish (or who are in a fit state) to attend:- the traditional "B4" (Burnham Bacon Butty Burn-up) followed by a quick trip to the seaside for an ice-cream.

Any thoughts on the matter will be taken into consideration - not neccessarily acted upon - but definitely considered.

Funny you should mention Southend. I know someone over that way with a BBQ...

If your thinking about the same person as I am, steer well clear. I hear he's a bit strange.
