I'm moving out of London and down to Kent in a couple of weeks. The moves all going to plan, touch wood, but need to get the 50cc Vespa down there. The A20/M20 doesnt really appeal as I cant got more the 35ish MPH.

Grateful for any routes/tips.

Thanks.

Oddly I had the exact same dilemna when I moved down to Sevenoaks with our Vespa 50cc this time last year - that was the route I used and only problem I had was getting a bit lost...

Well, Liverpool Street where I work. You'll be flat out for good chunks of the journey, even if derestricted!

I'm looking forward to it. Sort of. How long did it take you?

Think it was approx an hour and a half but this was during rush and I didn't take the most direct route - had to stop and get my bearings with my iPhone a couple of times!

Yep, got it. And to be honest, much more straightforward than following the google maps instructions on a scooter.
