seagulls?   wishing....                                                                                                                                                                             

been on this run many times over the years but may try meeting up with your good selves at one of the points arranged. Have to say im wary of riding with the main group as there are ALWAYS complete dickwads who get over excited and cause accidents... the official meeting place is at locks bottom which is about 1/4 hr from me,anyone riding up from surrey / south london give me a shout                                                                                                                                                                             

Lol @ ermintrude - I did think that's gonna be a hell of a lot of bikes!                                                                                                                                                                             

Hi. Anyone riding in from west to east fancy meeting up for a group ride in? I'll be riding in from Brighton area & looking to leave by 9.30am. I also have a spare seat if anyone fancies a pilly. Let me know.                                                                                                                                                                             

well done simmo                                                                                                                                                                             

Myself and Bill will be waiting along the Pembury by pass, i'm going to get in touch with him to make arrangements to ride up from Hastings just so we can ride back again .   Andy you still thinking of going to the Stag Inn for eats or not ? it would be good to see Bagpuss again                                                                                                                                                                             

Don't blame you Dave.  I'm really looking forward to this one.   Not sure what Andy's planning about food.  You know what he's like - it'll probably change at the 11th hour anyway!!  But you will possibly get to see Bagpuss whatever, as she is down on the events calendar as attending this event.  Hopefully she might be able to join us for eats this time, wherever we end up.                                                                                                                                                                             

I thgt she said pub wasnt doing food Mayday??
