Ztox 230 Report post Posted May 15, 2017 So after @Special K asking about a meet on the 28th and not being able to do it we'll do one on the 27th, which happens to be my birthday We'll meet at the Lion Inn for breakfast/lunch or just a drink After that, those who want to can go for a drive somewhere. I'm happy to go with @Special K's suggestion of Burnham-on-Crouch , never been there myself With a bit of luck we'll have some nice weather. With regards to timings, it can be up to a majority vote. Would people rather meet early (9/10am) or a little later(11/12ish)? Also, would you like to eat at the Lion Inn? Or we could just meet there, have a drink perhaps and then eat in Burnham-on-Crouch. @Special K do you know of any good places there? 1. Ztox + Chloe 2. Special K 3. Leevsfortyone 4.

Ulphy86 There are some good restaurants in Burnham. And the roads down from Woodham Ferrers onwards there are tight and windy . . hee hee . . . One particular pub which is popular, just off the High Street, or a hotel restaurant right on the front or there's a greasy spoon cafe which is a favourite haunt for bikers on a Sunday morning . . literally dozens of them hoon down the windy roads, park up and have a wander. I hope to be able to get us into the Crouch Yacht Club - I used to be a member there, it's where I did my sail training. Whatever we decide I suggest we try and make Burnham before midday and grab an early lunch, so mebbe just a cuppa at the Lion Inn? Weekenders take over Burnham but most are out sailing in the mornings . . . . and the good news is that I picked up my car yesterday ! This will be an excellent opportunity for me to finish running the new engine in . . Spec K Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Special K 442 Report post Posted May 24, 2017 Suggestion - shall we meet at the Lion Inn at 10.00am ? Cuppa, then off to Burnham at 11.00ish? Weather forecast is excellent . . . Spec K 1 Ztox reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Special K 442 Report post Posted May 28, 2017 I thoroughly enjoyed it, great to meet new people from Essex and touch base with regulars. I was a bit of a shame there was traffic on the route - there's some awesome bendy bits . . Made a change wandering around the marina and enjoying what was for me a blast from the past. Walking into the town? no-one told me to take my zimmer frame . . a great bonus it was stunning weather after the thunderstorm mid morning. Hopefully Birthday Boy will post a meet report . . Let's do Bradwell next time Spec K 1 Leevsfortyone reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
