  • Brilliant ride. Agree with the comments up thread, wonderful support from people along the route.

    Along with that my fav moments were the dawn mist rising from the meadows near Brandeston Hall with cattle sitting amongst it, the first glimmers of dawn and skinning two guys on bling bling crabon bikes up a hill on my mismatched pompino :) Longest SS ride I've done.

    Brilliant fun. Anyone see the lady with the inflatable dolphin attached to her bike and lit up pink?!

  • Yeah I saw that dolphin, although I have to admit I thought it was an inflated condom for about 5 minutes - which probably wasn't the look she was going for!

    Really enjoyed the ride this year, although I'm not entirely sure why. It started ominously with a ludicrous off-road detour (long story) which was really sketchy on a Brompton. This meant I was still heading through Epping after 11pm - by which point I couldn't see any sign of the Dynamo anywhere. Sadly the first reassurance that I hadn't got the wrong night was seeing an ambulance surrounded by riders a few miles later. With hindsight, missing the early crowds, and not having the usual thought of riding back again looming at the back of my mind, probably contributed to the fun I was having.

    Good to meet up with Nic en route, and share a few pints with MoN and Ramaye in the ship, before the heavens opened and Howrad and I made the tough decision to swerve another drink with Des and got thoroughly drenched on the way back to Ipswich as a result. The less said about the trains the better, but we made it in the end..
