Decided at the pub on friday night that it would be fun to ride to the sea on saturday. Left in the morning without planning a route and reached Felixstowe in 52 miles. Weather was pleasant until turning south at Woodbridge meant the last 10 miles were directly into the wind. Missed the train back by 3 minutes and my friend didnt fancy the 12 miles back to Ipswich so we sat on the platform and froze. Monsoon struck as we got in to Ipswich and i was very glad to be sheltering in a train. Look forward to doing a similar route as soon as the weather warms up and i can have ice cream at the end.
