Tip for next year: crank it to the rest stop.
I had two soups and a roll plus a plate of that yucky pasta and coffee before you lot arrived, and I didn't have to wait in a line.
I couldn't stop shivering when I got there, for me the worst part of the ride was just before and just after the feeding station, dark, dark woods, dark, dark moods, soaking wet, frozen solid. I got separated from everyone, lost in pitch blackness chasing down far-off tail-lights that kept disappearing round distant bends.
That ride was a real mission, stoked I finished.
Next time I am going to bring a hat and some mudguards.
Thanks for all I rode with, you know who you are.
I took a few photos and here are some of the best ones: MA3K FLICKY
My times:
Set out 20:30
Feed Station 12:30
Left Feed Station with Gang 03:30
Arrived Dunwich 07:30
I have not slept in 40 hours, in that time I have ridden 270 KMs (Dunwich + city riding + errands + to stations etc) So let me say again:
GOOD RIDE AND GOOD FUCKING NIGHT !!!
