Failed to follow Oliver's advice and had an 8am departure. 30deg temps proved a bit too much for my girlfriend who started vomiting due to the heat and we trained the rest of the way from the 120km mark at Sudbury.
I thought it might be a bit too much. I rode out to Sible Hedingham for the DD feed on an extremely hot day and felt as if I couldn't/shouldn't go on much further, and that was only 50 miles. Well done for doing 120k, though--where did you start from to make it such a long distance? It's 60 miles from Hackney to Sudbury.
Oliver Schick-
Started in Lewisham, got to between Great Waldingfield & Little Waldingfield then turned back so guess it was 119km all up including the journey back to Sudbury.

Supposed to have done a daytime Dunwich Dynamo on Saturday staying overnight at Satis Lodge in Darsham as a birthday treat. Failed to follow Oliver's advice and had an 8am departure. 30deg temps proved a bit too much for my girlfriend who started vomiting due to the heat and we trained the rest of the way from the 120km mark at Sudbury. Lovely route out through Essex. Rode to Dunwich this morning. Feels like a bit of a failure and was hugely disappointed at not completing the ride as I was feeling great! Lovely times though.
