    White Cliff Run (kent coast run mk2)

    hi All
    Part one of the new route for you for Sunday 9th April
    PLEASE ENSURE YOU BRING 2x£1 COINS FOR PARKING
    This is a much more of a chill out drive and a chat than the normal manic Kent coast run, also a bit shorter, meeting up at 10.30 leaving around 110.30 from Hythe services, an hours drive to the Battle of Britain memorial, stay there for an hour, then a 40 min drive to Samphire Hoe. So bring the missus along and take for for a romantic walk This is where the run will end as it sits on the M20. I will however after about an hour take a run back to the services or Folkestone seafront if anyone is interested.

    Starting at the services So please make sure people get fuel (or some food) as there are NO fuel stops along the way
    The Starting point is
    Stop 24 Services Stanford Intersection Hythe Kent CT21 4BL.

    This end point is the Battle of Britain memorial Post code CT18 7JJ. If we could make sure people are respectfull when entering and leaving!!! and its £1 to Park, We Will be staying here for 1 hour, there is a cafe with some sandwiches, and pasties, or bring a pack lunch.
    Highly recommended to walk to the front as the view from the cliffs is amazing!
    also if wanted there is an experience (museum part there for £6)

    Second Part of the run,
    Ends at samphire Hoe post code Dover CT17 9FL
    Again £1 to park, A nice tunnel running in a out. some lovely walks and again a small cafe doing a few bits of food right on the Sea front again lovely views, head into the coach/overflow car park for some good pictures of the cars together
    People need to be careful coming out of Dover heading towards Samphire Hoe, If people come off roundabout and go hacking up Dual carriage way, they will miss samphire hoe turn off, and there isnt a 2nd one..

    See you there

    I'm on a rest day, so will definitely be there. Motor is not running perfect, but as long as I don't trash her too much she should be fine. Glad it's more leisurely pace this year, I reached some licence losing speeds at times last year

    Should be mate. Fancy convoying down together? Still haven't seen your new purchase!
