SCOOTER RIDE OUTS
On Sunday, THE PIRATES SC will take you around the cliff tops and bays to Broadstairs first for an ice cream at legendary Italian Gelato shop
Morelli’s before heading onto Ramsgate, stopping at the harbour for a short refreshment break.
We then head back across Manston airfield and into Margate and along the seafront, a lovely ride for sure!
