I've never personally had a problem with the Ipswich-Liverpool st trains or indeed the smaller ones between Lowestoft-Ipswich. Virgin seem quite good about bikes in general and particularly on those line from what I've read about their guidelines.

I got into an argument with the guy behind the ticket desk because i was going to see my son's school play in Lockerbie...i'd ridden down to Euston...only to be told i couldn't get my bike on the train because it was full...i explained how i'd never had trouble before and how i'd ridden there....i said so is there any way i can get my bike on the train...he said the only way was a different kind of ticket..."how much is that?"...."£240"...."That's fucking ridiculous....so you're telling me that if i pay more money then there's suddenly space?....i don't believe the train is full"...he took a strop....got up...walked over to the filing cabinet behind him...grabbed it, and started kicking it repeatedly...at which point a lady came and told me the same thing...there's no space cos there's already 3 bikes booked on.
I had to ride home...leave my bike...and go back on foot.
Richard Branson can kiss my ass when it comes to bikes on his trains!

I've had so many problems with them.

you can book tickets on any train in the UK through that, and reserve a place for your bike wherever you need one.

Yeah Virgin with 3 bikes per train is shite. AND you have to pre-book. So much for him being green.

On my old Pugsley maybe! :)

All this talk of getting back really makes the ride sound like a drag...

Not as much as the talk of riding back, though ;)

Sorry to hear it. It is a silly rule to cap it especially if you end up dealing with a jobs worth cunt. I can only talk about my experiences on the lines I've been on though and I can't say I've had a negative experience between Ipswich and London which is the route people have mentioned above.

Actually I'm using a front brake as I've just purchased some Shimano brake levers and hoods to stop my hands from cramping up. May as well stick one on whilst they're there.

I give up. I'll be there, most likely on a bicycle.

Porter_Pearson

My mate has survived several attempts on a badly(not at all) maintained mountain bike and the first time I did the ride with him he was the VERY last to get to the beach. He has a road bike now. Make your own assumptions from this. A unicycle would be much harder if you want a challenge.
• #517

The Ipswich to London (at least the proper ones coming from Norwich) trains have a proper guards van at the back (i.e. furthest from the Liverpool St concourse) which will fit hundreds of bikes in. There will be no problem getting bikes on. You'll probably have to let the station people know, because the door needs to be unlocked by the guard.

You might need to book a (free) ticket for it - (I did when I took my bikes to Norwich though and the train people said there was no need to have bothered with the bike ticket.)

I'm still really jealous of all the people who're riding back. Do you reckon someone who looks a bit like me might be persuaded to take my place in the B&B, so I can join you? My gf will probably be so wrecked she won't actually notice...

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

Mention another user by @username

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
