^^ Ah yeah I remember them :)
(and the sausage trailer guy, Framlingham I believe, he needed MOAR signs!)
Highlight for me was chasing a bat along the lane next to Dunwich heath, it would fly ahead of me for a hundred meters or so, never more than a meter ahead, and then dive and swoop off, the last time it did, swooping right at me. Can't have been more than a few inches away.
Was also very nice to ride alone for some of it, its incredibly nice to stop in the silence looking out on a field at 2am and knowing that I didn't have to rush back onto the bike for anyone else
