First time i've done the Dunwich and it's probably the most fun I've had on a bike for many years. Riding at night through the early hours to sunrise was incredible.
Big thank you to all at Grobag towers who put me up for the weekend. The carb loading meal on the Friday night was brilliant. Hillbilly the Saturday morning breakfast was awesome.
For the actual ride itself I rode with Scott not Scott and Tricitybendix. I was brilliant riding with you guys and thanks. The brake issue was pretty funny as well and probably could not have happened at a worst point. After attempting a bodge we decided to press on with Tricitybendix now brakeless on 48X16. Soon after we hit on of the steeper and longer down hills.
The feed station was also quite amusing queue was massive but it didn't matter Scott whipped out his flask filled with sausage and beans. I had to make do with a sandwich.
The last little I was certainly flagging a bit and we had a breif stop to scoff some gels and bars.
At Dunwich we caught up with the other half of Grobag towers Hillbilly and Plagiarist. Which was brlliant. Hillbilly was stomping around with Plagiarist still asleep in the cafe.
Coach orgainisation was a bit crap and non existant. I was beaten back by the rest of Grobag towers all of whom had got the train.
Thanks to all the guys at Grobag towers it was an awesome weekend. See you in a couple of weeks for Brick to Brix.
