Awesome! What a great way to spend a BH weekend. We did a bit of rocky bridleway action too around the South Downs Way. My mate is collecting veloviewer tiles/squares. So when I ride with him we’re regularly taking road bikes “off the beaten track” in search of elusive squares. I’m now disappointed if there aren’t some off road sections on our road rides.

Nice! I did something similar in the other direction (SE London - Whitstable - Eastbourne - SE London), but over 3 days with fully-laden touring rig, to prepare for LEJOG in a couple of weeks. Thankfully we're not using Google Maps to plot a route for that, because I made the schoolboy error of letting it map our route via completely unrideable paths to massive dual carriageways. Still, for the most part it was beautiful weather, lovely lanes and pretty villages, with a particularly pleasant ride through Kent Downs AONB towards the South coast, through Rye, Hastings and Bexhill on to Eastbourne, then return home on Monday, along the Cuckoo Trail before navigation disasters occurred.
Thankfully I was back in familiar territory this side of Sevenoaks and I think we got a wave from @HoKe and a couple of others, around 4pm just before heading up Star Hill?
