Ok ref the e mails Ive sent for the route,its changed slightly from point 36 on....a few miles off the A21 to go via Battle as more interesting and a break from the madness of the A21!
Lets hope weather improves....
Please look at the other ride outs/events for the coming months and get your name on some of emm!

Oh i say Matron !!!!.
Just to remind anyone who lives in the Hastings/Bexhill or surrounding area if you would like to join Bill 306 and myself on Monday for a ride up to the Pembury ByPass to meet up with the others and ride back again, we shall be at Elva Service Station at the top end of Hastings on the A21 ( by Sainsburys) just before the Harrow Bridge at 10.00 ready to leave at 10.15. As before anyone who wants to come but no bike, pillion seats are empty, please don't hesitate to get in touch even at this late stage so we can sort out pick up place. Regards Dave !
