Just got back!
Started little before nine, did few stops to sort out lights etc and of course at the feeding station, arrived in Dunwich 5 o'clock, think my average speed was 16.88 mph.
At 5 o'clock mostly of the guys there were on road bikes, i reckon only 3 fixed riders were there.
Went on a road bike with compact chainset (50/34) and a 11-23 cassette. Oh and a 135mm stem!
When having breakfast, met this guy who was going to get a train from Ipswich at 8. I was supposed to get the train back at 11:40 but decided to take the risk and use the same ticket but get an early train.
We rode from Dunwich to Ipswich in about 1 hours 45 minutes - i was having a hard time to keep up with the guy!
Hope you guys had a nice ride as well!
I think for next year will consider saving a bit of money and get some better lights!
