Can't do this one this year, as I have entered the Brentwood 10K on the same day.
However, on this coming Sat 12th, bike events are doing a ride from Little Havens, so I may try and pick up the route in Rayleigh and go for a ride to Maldon and Back if anybody wants to meet up?

Ian - do you fancy cycling there and then running? I can get us a lift home as my son is running in the juniors club champs.
