Yeah I did, would advised against the coast because it's windy as fuck (worth checking the wind direction first thought).
That route cross the Reedham Ferry which is a nice little touch, worth going through.
It's not flat, just a tiny constant disillusion of tiny ascending and descending, what look like a descent felt like hard work, but the route between Manningtree to Well-next-the-sea was lovely and probably the second best of the route.
Route between Fakenham and Newmarket may be quite dull, I had a headwind the entire duration and it was hell, worth changing that section as it's just there to pass the time during the night to get to Straffon Walden for breakfast.
After Straffon Walden, you get awesome rolling hill that make you wanna sing Babel O'Riley, so I do recommend that stretch of route back to Manningtree.
