Hi folks . A couple of direction-following issues that came to light when I followed the route from this thread a few evenings ago:
On exiting Istead Rise the continuation of across the A227 Wrotham Road appears on the map to be a regular road. Actually it's a track for non vehicular traffic with a metal barrier at the A227 junction. A sweet, if potholed route turn left at the first houses to keep on route.
Globe Lane in Rochester ends with the carriageway forking into two one-way sections. the correct way was impassible because of the bus station under reconstruction. Watch out for the 50m of wrong way. Will be tricky for such big group.then Left onto the Dock Road.
Finally, stop just before the top of Basser Hill after Lower Halstow to look back at the view over the estuary and the Isle of Grain.

Wish I could join in. Huge turnout.
