A slightly tinuous link to International Women's Day which is on 8th March Purple, Green and White being the colours that represent the celebration and Lavender being a lighter shade of purple, we will visit the Lavender Farm before crossing the road to Lullingstone Park for our refreshment stop.

Starting at Dartford railway station and heading out towards the Kent Countryside and some pretty villages.

The route is a mixture of country lanes and some busy roads there are some hills involved but well worth the effort for the views and we always wait and regroup at the top.

The ride will be going through Shoreham which is famed for its Aircraft Museum with its popular and excellent cycle stop (which unfortunately is closed for the winter) we will pass through and have a rest stop at Lullingstone Park before starting the return journey via Eynsford, passing over the Ford then winding our way back to Dartford.

The weather can be even more unpredictable this time of year so layering up and a waterproof recommend.

Don't forget spare inner tubes and snacks.

An undulating route through some pretty Kent villages including the very picturesque Eynesford.

A mixture of quite country roads with a couple of busier main roads.

We will stop briefly at the Lavender Farm for a photo opportunity and if anyone wants a quick browse around the shop they are welcome we will then stop at Lullingstone Country Park for our refreshment stop.

Dress for the weather bring along a couple of snacks if you feel you will need them and I would always recommend a spare inner tube.

We never leave anyone behind
