Having seen bikes by the dozen there in the past, I took a ride out to the Dick Turpin pub on the Southend-bound side of the A127 on 1st July. Apparently there's a meet there every Tuesday night through the summer. It was packed, nearly all diesels though!!!
There was a post about it on the RD Forum, and one of the guys that went said he only found 3 strokers. I was there all evening and among the strokers that turned up were 2x RGV250s, a KH400, RG500, NSR250, Mito, RS125 Aprillia, various scooters, and my bright green KR250 that he failed to see!
Among the other bikes were loads of Gixxers, with owners in matching leathers, some serious customs ( they must have spent a fortune, shame they were Harleys), and a few classics. All in all, a good night out.
So if any of you guys fancy a ride out on a Tuesday night, give it a try!
