Hi.

Yep I aim to be, although may well be nearer the afternoon as Im going to a party saturday night.

I normally get train to Benfleet station and start from highest point there and end at Leigh.

Youll find lots of routes posted on Strava but generally go from top of Station Road the steep road behind station or keep going up St Marys Road, once you enter either of these turn left and keep following track/firetrack (youll find the St Marys one is better in muddy conditions), just keep riding east/left and youll find a good route with some short fun 'DH' bits (near Shipwrights Road entrance) or the 'Leap of Faith' Olympic track bit..then go through or round Hadleigh Castle to Leigh on Sea.
