We're always welcoming to additional TOSSERS so long as they buy the furst beer, by which I mean we ain't proud. Keep an eye on the fred for updates. Adz has a plan for one seriously long Kent laning trip so wiv luck and a fair wind that'll be our September trip.

Yup - got the majority of it 'planned' - going to speak to the ROW team at KCC before I publish it, make sure there's no TRO's and that my maps are up to date enough (should feckin' be as I've only just bought noo ones).
Suffice to say, if we do manage everything on me list we'll have gone from just South of Cobham to the West of Rochester, to just North of Ashford. As this takes in a fair bit of the North Downs Way and Pilgrims Way, I'm expecting a fair amount of it to be surfaced and not very challenging. The Cats Mount and the first lane of the day just to the South of Cobham should more than make up for it I hope.
Where in Kent are you Ade?

Doubt it, wuz planned fer the end of August but getting the new chassis will spin things out a bit more. I've got a fortnight off in August to sort it, so If it all goes well who knows.

I'm in Maidstone.
We have a very long stretch of Pilgrims way open now all the way from Hollingbourne to charing. The TRO at Lenham has now been lifted as have a couple of others on the top of the downs.
All of those lanes between Lenham & Charing are very tight and scratchy, great laugh though.
Not sure if you know Buttonmonkey on a few of the other forums but he's in constant talks with the KCC byways bloke and has managed to get a few good stretches open. He's got most of the Kent lanes marked on his maps if you want to meet up when he gets back from his holidays.
Cheers

Adz,
as your local you may already know this link. It's sort of up to date but as we found out on Saturday it's best checking all the routes.
Anyhow here's the link to the kent definitive ish map http://extranet7.kent.gov.uk/explorekentgis/map.aspx
Best guy to try to speak to is Ian Hayes on 01233 820797 but he needs path numbers to answer questions.
If you zoom in on the map in the above link and choose the "select a feature" then click on the byway it will give you the number.

1 didn't even wanna get out the way
Oh and we met a young girl on a horse on a stretch narrower than my motor, if it's wet or cold they'll stay at home watchin' Last of the summer wine!!
