Ok this is pretty much the route I have in mind... It was a quick plan and open to some discussion esp if you know some nice roads that have less little yellow boxs or are a bit of a squeeze.
We will try and have planned route stops at petrol stations for both fuel and a chance to catch up or for others to join in....
Route is planned not as a london to brighton "parade" but am happy to change to that.
Start time in London should be about 8am in order for us to miss any sunday traffic and have a bit of Zed noise in the Tunnels (BTW if anyone is up for a really early start and a bit of a sunrise photo shoot, am happy to meet in the west end round Trafalgar Sq, and then make our way to the meeting point...
Also if anyone knows of a good greasy spoon for the meet then shout!!
