Fun Roads in Kent

[razor]

Has anyone got any recommendations for fun or scenic drives in Kent (near Bromley)? i.e. ones which won't involve loads of traffic, will have some pleasant sights to see and will enable me to explore the potential of my Cerb (within the speed limit, of course).

Since you're talking about my neck o' the woods and working on the basis that what's fun on a bike will be almost as good in a Cerb, how about these;-
A227 Ightham to Tonbridge.
B2042 Sevenoaks (leads off A25) to Edenbridge and then on to Dormansland and E Grinstead. (some very tight right angle bends betwen Sevenoaks and Four Elms). For a longer run carry on from E Grinstead along B2110 to Cowfold then turn right onto A272 which is top fun all the way to WInchester.
From Selsdon Park Road A2022 take Featherbed Lane south, at T jct by pub turn right then left into main road and blast down the hill to Westerham.
Can't think of any more but that'll do for starters. Maybe see you out there.

....or you could carry on through Edenbridge & blast across the Ashdown Forest, theres some lovely roads in that area.
If you are Bromley based drop me a line, the local TVR owners tend to meet most weekends for a blat/lunch/blat, we often get ten or more cars just for an informal get together, & 30+ when we really get our heads together. (including this Sunday, let me know if you're interested)
Go on..you know you want to!!

Nick,

I am about 5 mins from Bromley (or less, if driving the Cerbera) - I probably won't be able to make it this weekend, but would be interested in coming along some other time. Do you all tend to meet in one place?

It would be great to meet other, local TVR owners.

i'm very near edenbridge , and the ashdown forest road is a cracker, if you head toward uckfield when you get out the other side, couple of very wide single lane roads with 'overtaking potential', then turn right at r'bout and head back towards tunbridge wells.

also from bromley, just go straight down the A21 towards hastings and cut across towards ashford once you run out of dual carrage way, very twisty. great on a dry day n a dn some cracking pubs if you fancy a stop on the way.. enjoy the weather, just incase i spot you out, what colour's the car?

Agree with the Ightham to Tonbridge road (will be doing it tonight on my way home from London). Would also add the Lamberhurst to Sissinghurst road and Tunbridge Wells to Crawley.

I also live very near edenbridge and recommend the B2042. Turn off the road and also try the lanes around Penshurst, Chiddingstone and Fordcombe. Spotted dog or Bottle house inn for lunch then back through Hever and Chartwell.
