2011-09-17 Sat - Clacton-on-Sea - Last Ride of the Summer

I'd be well up for dungeness, fucking love that part of the country. Derek jarmans place is ace and the rubber house and the chippy down the road from that...

I'm arranging the train to get an extra carriage so we can piles our bicycles on it, did you get my pm then?

@Fox - Sizewell! I have a mate who works there...

Get train back from Rye or Sandling (north of Hythe). Know that coastline like the back of my hand.

Whole coastline from Hythe to Dungeness is great, and flat, and yes - fucking CRACKING fish & chip places. Sit-in restaurant at Dungeness right next to the RHDR (light railway), and a chippy at Hythe near the beach.

Extra carriage on this railway? lolz ;)

hint.

Can we skitch along behind some nuclear waste?

rode from rye to dungeness and back in june - beautiful (albeit short - 26 miles altogether) ride, and derek jarman's stomping grounds are as alien as his movies - empty shingle beach, wreckage of some boats scattered along it, nasty winds, and the nuclear power station in the distance towering over it.

seems like people take the train to rye from london and then ride from there.
