Start time: 0630, departing at 0645 sharp.

Start Place: All attendees will be PM'd exact location. Suffice to say its in the NW Kent vacinity, close to Junction 3 of the M25. Please arrive fuelled up, there is a 24 hour Shell garage two miles from the start point.

Route description: Approx 75 miles. Usual mixture of A, B and a pattering of more technical unclassified stuff around the West Kent / East Sussex area. Routesheets should be available at the start (if i'm not too tired to recee the route after I get in from work at midnight tonight). wobble

Finish: Before 0830 at the cafe for brekkie. Free parking and good value, tasty grub.

The forecast for Sunday is looking good according to the BBC.

Could well be up for this, as I missed the last Kent run, it will depend on what time I get to bed on Saturday.

SELOC have a run-out on Sunday to the Brands Elise Trophy. You may want to jump on the end of that.

Well, that certainly was a mini hoon - just myself and the uber-wagen, Shaun's M5, with Ash GT pax'ing!

It was a last minute decision to organise this hoon, I spotted a predicted break in the weather on Friday and decided to run with it.

The weather did indeed remain dry, although there was a large number of wet leaves strewn across the asphalt in places which needed to be treated with a measure of respect, blown down from Saturday nights heavy rain and strong winds.

The Elise seemed down on power today. Head gasket appears fine, so possibly just a minor electrical gremlin.

I booted it big time on the journey home after the cafe in an attempt to clear the slight misfire. Seemed to work; the private motorway I stumbled across en-route saw an indicated 1.38 leptons. smile

Now off to The Bull in Horton Kirby for a few beers. See you soon. drink

p.s. look after Neil Johnson in Blackpool. Those northern lasses will have him for breakfast.
