I know this is a bit late (and I'll be riding to Paris the time), but Clacton? As someone who grew up in Essex I impore you all to change the route a fraction and go up the coast to the next town - Frinton-On-Sea. Frinton is a lovely victorian town, great chippy and very unchanged and quiet. Clacton is a complete dive full of all of the negative stereotypes of Essex.
Please, do yourselves a massive favour and go to Frinton. The mileage is the same, and the end result is unquestionably better.
