After everyone had signed on, off we set to our Breakfast stop at Lynn's Cafe at the Ongar Sports Club. Unfortunately, very quickly, we were confronted with roads covered by stone clippings from road works that were not there on Monday. Fortunately everyone coped well on the tricky surface and we got back to tarmac. It was good to get out of town on to nice little back lanes.

After breakfast we rode on through Ongar, Paul O'leary on his KH Kawasaki 400 stopping for petrol and spark plugs. Through some more lanes before hitting Brentwood town centre, which thankfully was fairly quiet, but unfortunately none of the cast of T.O.W.I.E were spotted probably too early for them, on towards lunch.

Our venue for lunch was the Wat Tyler Park named after one if the leaders of the Peasant revolt of 1381. While stopped for lunch Dave Bradley came up with an alternative route back to the Musem of Power avoiding the poorly surfaced roads we had encountered in the morning and graciously agreed to lead everyone back to base. I would like to thank Dave very much for his help and advice in planning this route and also for the massive amount of effort he put in with the organisation of the event as well as Simon Enticknap, Dave Iszard, John Beckinsale and Rex Croft.

Hope everyone had fun.
