Byways in Kent

Shame its a bit of a long drag for me. If I drove that far on my mud tyres I would be deaf by the time I arrived!
My local club is based around the Tunbridge Wells area so not quite such a long drag for me (Hastings)

Wish I lived nearer....

Yeah, I'll see how mine are on the motor way I know there not as agressive as yours so fingers crossed


Yes Gus you need to Move

That's interesting.. are you saying there's a p&p site near t wells Allan?

No just the club meeting point. We have monthly meetings at Paddock Wood for planning events etc.
We have exclusive use of several places along the Sussex/Kent boarder for our competitions.
Cant say exactly because you are not a member but Sevenoaks, Hawkhurst, Uckfield and Ashford ish will
give you an idea of the areas we use.

Hi all. I have spent the morning looking at the Kent council web site and cross referencing with my maps.
According to the web site, the TRO's will be lifted on the 20th of April.
I am hoping to do a planning trip on 22/23 April. If my plan works out I should have 14 byways to drive.
I will try and grade each byway for its scratch potential (Dan)
I have an event with my club on the bank holiday 29th April / 1st May. So would be looking at doing the lanes 6th May onwards
if others that have expressed an interest would like a run out. Just for info, I would like to limit numbers to 4 vehicles in total
so we don't upset the locals.

Brilliant Allan looking forward to it Sunday's are better for me the scratch potential level indicator scanner is appreciated

Ok a Sunday it is then. I have never planned a route for others before, just normally head out on my own with
my maps. It will be a bit different. Will have to see nearer the time what the general consensus is on timings.
I will no more after the test run. Options are, 1: start early and finish at lunch. 2: mid morning and stop for a lunch break
(packed lunch or pub lunch) I don't mind. Or 3: meet after lunch and have an afternoon of it.
Early start is not a problem if others have family commitments but not silly early as it will take me 1-1.5 hours to get to the start !

I thought the lanes where around you? where is the start then Allan? Ashford way? I don't mind an early start traffic wise getting anywhere will be better that's just my opinion though I'm in Orpington.

Little village of Wye just east of Ashford. Its around an hour from Hastings (my house) if the traffic is not too bad.

Ah ok, be about the same for me then.

Hey Allan, gents

That Sunday works perfectly for me.. you've given me hard deadline to get a new rad sorted which is a good thing!

Time wise I can do any option really with a slight preference to option 1 or 2.

Cheers
Mark
