2011-08-27 - Deepest, darkest Essex - part 1 - Bradwell-on-Sea & the Dengie Peninsula

I got it up to 31mph for a couple of seconds--aided by a slight downhill, a fairly strong tailwind, and gears.

35.3mph (48x19) ;)

I'm not quite sure which road you mean, but I didn't find anything very surprising about the driving...

I was thinking of Steeple Road between Latchingdon and Bradwell. Particularly the bit where 5 or 6 cars overtook us in a row, going round a bend. I'm used to idiotic driving but that many in a row did shock me slightly. I suppose herd mentality is to blame...
