    Do bikes meet up every night here or just certain nights, I'm out of touch with meets in the area. I think there's a meet in Epping forest as well , don't know what night. I may have pen down for a few nights

    As someone who regularly goes past the Ace cafe I`d say that most nights there are bikes & cars there. They have specific bike & car nights...Just look on their website for more details.
    Be aware though.....The A406 is full of numpty car drivers, I once see a guy eating a pot noodle through his steering wheel whilst travelling about 40 mph!!!
    also, they have recently put in average speed cameras too on certain bits of it too just to add to the misery of the poxy road. Great atmosphere though, food OK, but typically London prices.

    Been there a few times on a Sunday for theme days. The journey there puts me off going again.

    It's really only worth going on a themed night, I've been a couple of times at lunch time and would rather have gone to loomies, nicer journey, better food and generally more bikes, but less nostalgia
