I'm heading over to Bedgebury on Saturday. I've been told the route is very clear but I've never ridden it before... There is a chance that there will be somebody with me that knows the route but it's a small one. So if you fancy a trip out Saturday morning the weather is supposed to be good... I'm aiming to get there for about 10am as thats when the local club group starts. That means I'd probably be leaving Thurrock Services at about 08:30. Address: QUENCH CYCLES @ BEDGEBURY Bedgebury Visitor Centre Bedgebury Road Goudhurst Kent TN17 2SJ |

Runs are all marked , and easy to follow, even I don't get lost  You can get a map from the visitor centre or download one. http://www.bedgeburypinetum.org.uk/ The car park costs about £7 per day , but the lay-bys on the A21 just before Flimwell are free They are just by an entrance to the park and lead you to the first run - Genesis. It usually takes about an hour from the Tunnel. Oh and the cafe is excellent ... Brie and Bacon Baguette mmmmmmmmm Wish I could join you ... Have fun |

I plan to get there for 10 for their club ride then either stay with them or go off - I was thinking at least two laps, one to learn a little and then a second to have some fun... |

Afternoon. Am gonna try and join you down there and get some miles in, got a pass and the car, so want to make a day of it. Heading down from Chelmsford. I'll be in a battered purple Polo, but don't hold that against me  Where you parking? Lay-by or Car Park? Cheers: -Dave |

Think the club ride is a bit more family orientated riding speeds, its all sign posted the way around so no problems for getting lost (I say now). See at 9:45-10ish. In a bright red seat Ibiza, blue bike |
