THE CLASSIC MOTOR CYCLE MEET AND RUN

(a message to entrants)

Dear Riders and Friends Welcome to the 11th "Eastbourne Lions Charity Classic Motorcycle Meet and Run" with Grand Draw supporting The Sussex Air Ambulance.

Since its start in 2000 with an initial entry of 97 machines the event has grown with entries now exceeding 250.

East Sussex is a beautiful and interesting County for motorcycling and this event is an ideal way of seeing some of it and its historic past.

Shortly after the start you will pass Pevensey Castle built by the Romans who called it "Anderida". The inner keep was built by William the Conqueror. Nearby is the first Church built by him in 1080. A few miles on and by kind permission of the owners, you will pass the grounds of Herstmonceux Castle passing by the moated 15th century fortress.

The two routes of 54 miles and 60 miles give riders the choice of missing out some of the hills. In particular the shorter route misses the long Netherfield Hill, but at the cost of missing Battle High Street with its period houses and unique character. Whichever route you choose both meet for a halfway break at the White Hart, Netherfield, before continuing southward towards the finish but not before enjoying the winding roads across the Seven Sisters, the Downs and Beachy Head then dropping down to Eastbourne sea front and the finish.
