Hi

I wouldn't mind catching a ride with someone if that is possible????, plus i remember the Kent Run route as i do those roads regualy for work.....

I would suggest going from Rye towards Hastings then onto the A21 as that bit of road is great.....

Plus with everybodys permission i wouldn't mind getting some photos and film footage.... Number plates would oversly be disquised....

Regards

Id be happy to give you a lift. So long as you can get yourself to Kings Hill, or the starting point in the morning.

Being you seem to know the route, would you be kind enough to try and describe it in an email to me, and I will forward it to the rest of the guys who would like an idea in advance. Dont post too much detail here.

YES YES YES YES YES!!!! smilesmile Picking up my new toy on Saturday smile
Yes to the Run?, VMAX?, or Picking up Gonzales?

What new car are you picking up?
See post above, but was refering to the run, but if gonzales wants a ride I can pick him up.
Picking up a very orange fisher fury http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/274518.htmsmile
Though taking me for a ride is a good idea,what will happen about you taking part in the run?
You could be a passenger on the run; Canterbury to M20 Maidstone services is what, 20mins? The downside is I have a dark drive to Canterbury, unless you can get yourself to the services?
The problem is, is that i don't drive. I could always get a lift down to Maidstone Services if i'm allowed(old teenger - 15years)
How long does it take you to get to Maidstone? Justing thinking of times.
Also, do you have a helmet, if not will be bl**dy cold at that time in the morning! I will get a second one eventually, but having just spent almost £2500 more on a car than I had intended, it will have wait for a bit!

Just sent you an email. Unfortunetly i won't be able to come as i have got loads of work to do that weekendfrown.

Cheers

Chris

Yes please, either through my profile or hugh_gabriel (at) msn (dot) com

I know the route to Rye as its my fairly regular stomping ground; but beyond there is beyond my normal radius. Still hoping for good weather on Saturday so I can get the car; I dont fancy the idea of semi-slicks and rain for 190miles!!!

I'm up for it depending on my ribs!

Managed to crack a couple last week after coming off a quad but will probably come along and see how it goes.

Did the last run and it was all good fun apart from the TVR going backwards through the fence!

Did you see my reply; I've just realised what I said about the mistake may not be entirely correct! If by the cross roads you mean Golford rather than Benenden, then it would not be Rolvenden, but it would still be left not right...

Dont worry about it too much. Ill have the guy who knows the route in my passenger seat. He is the one who wrote the directions, maybe its just a typo, but Im sure he knows it once we are there. If not you seem to know the area pretty well, so one way or another Im sure we will be ok.

Sounds like a real plan, missed the prev one, but I've signed with the London meet and don't want to dissapoint them biggrin

Maybe we should consider blending both, but dunno about timings. What if we do London, go for a quick pre-run meet at The Woodman, and then hit the road..?

Planning on meeting at J8 M20 Services at 6.30am to leave at 7.00am. This run worked well last time becasue we had empty roads, so we need to leave at dawn.
As before, please copy and paste the list, and add your name and car to it.

Hi All,

I might be up for this. Is the route different? I have orginal copies of the kent Runs. Need to check with SWMBO to see we are not doing anything. Will know later today.

Cool, I think the route is the same, maybe Tom (zippy) can confirm this.
