Not sure about giving it large Ratty but I was trying not to let KDW get past at one point. That track ain't big enough for the both of us!! I had an earlier setback when I landed on my saddle a bit hard and bent the seat post so it's off to OT Cycles later to see if I can get another (stronger) one. Great day in glorious sunshine and well done to TK and Jazzyje for all their efforts. Humps

Good video that.

Lets see if we can maintain the Hersden pride when the summer series invades on the 29th.

The 29th is going to be massive. I reckon that there will be around 30 riders with the Hersden crew and the summer series hitting the track.
I like the look of Hersden, nice and mellow, which will make a nice change after Hayes.

pmsl, Ill stick to Maccy dees then.... Cheers Kev

that was from maccy dees

heres a link to streetmap showing the turning you need off the A28 -- the sycamor

straight up that road you'll see a kids playground & the track is behind that

once you get to the playground follow the track around to the left and toward the football fields
then you find it goes sharp right and your there

streetmap link for Hersden near Canterbury

best bet to get down there is thro tunnel head east on A2 / M2
not forgetting to salute Buckmore park as you go by

at the other end of the M2 you can take either the A2 and then A28 - long winding and thro Canterbury
or best route is straight on taking the A299 to Herne Bay turning

then take effective 3rd exit of the roundabout for the A291 - a nice country drive

at the other end of A291 you should be at the level crossing and looking at the A28
turn left here and keep going

you'll see a new build housing area and a mini roundabout - straight over that
then on the right is a car sales place with a trractor on a pole -- your pretty much there now

sure others may have better descriptions but that'll get ya started

for satnav users nearest postcode is CT3 4HX
