Re: Sunday 10th March
Great to get out for my first run of the year
Good route, but the strong wind, wet roads and branches to avoid kept me on my toes. We had the clearest run along the Plumpton road I have ever had.
The odd deleted waypoint and closed road spiced things up, and breakfast was excellent. A good chat at breakfast made for a great start to Sunday. Thanks for organising!

Re: Sunday 10th March
Posh bakers K?
You’ll be proud of me, I had the small break again and it was great too
Yes, great route but driven really at the wrong time, quite a few hazards with standing water and debris, one if the roads we went on just before the cafe was blocked with a fallen tree just as we left the cafe!
Thanks for the morning guys, great chat over breaky

Re: Sunday 10th March
great run out today, really enjoyed it,
blocked rds , fallen trees,standing water, dodgy way points,
cars in all directions and a
dope of a van driver stopped in the middle of the road waiting
for his brain cell to engage in the days activities
great banter over bfast.
thanks to all

Re: Sunday 10th March
As above great run, the wind and standing water spiced things up a little bit.
Need to get my radio working properly for the next run as the Sat Nav was proper confused, I think it doesn’t like missing waypoints and then insists you turn round and go back..
Until next time

And there in lies a tale. I saw you coming back, decided to turn around so went fwds across the road, stopped, went backwards across the road, stopped & just as I engaged 1st again, I felt the car roll back a further inch & drop into a ditch up to the chassis, I radioed GB but he was away on his tyres, 1st gear did nothing, reverse just showered me & the car with mud.
So I called the fallen tree into the police as well as the other road blockage - me, then a nice man in a merc stopped & we considered ways of extricating my car. He suggested we could lift it, but a short test said that wasn't going to work, he said he had a tractor that would pull it out - but it wasn't road legal & the police were on their way, I'd got the tow rope round a front wishbone & we were going to try to pull the front sideways to lift one rear wheel back onto the road & then the other, when another couple turned up, so after a brief planning session they both lifted the rear wheel arches, while I (braced against a fence post) pushed on the roll bar & ........ it came out of the ditch!
I thanked them profusely & headed back to my Dad's finding another fallen tree blocking the A23 (I think) & another between Westerham & Farliegh where a curved tree had fallen right across the road, but because it was a curved tree the traffic was just driving under the arch it had made - quite surreal.
But yes, good route.
