Yes, and a very welcome sight they were. There was also a couple sitting on a bench in the middle of nowhere cheering people on who had brought a track pump with them for riders to use. Lovely stuff.
Haha yeh that was really sweet, I wonder if anyone got a puncture right in front of them lol. Seemed to be a lot of puntures. Was very nice that people made signs and cheered every rider that endered Dunwich they were still doing it an hour later when I left the beach! And the bleary eyed cyclists just looked bemused lol.

First time doing this ride for me, was a great experience. I was quite pleased I made it all the way fixed geared but my time was just over 10 hours.
There was a tiny sausage trailer somewhere, saved me with a sausage and coke after I had finished what I thought was more than enough rations.
Got pretty tough towards the end. I went on my own and just followed the lights no map, smart phone, or route sheets! Luckily I don't think I got lost at all, however its very east to follow someone the wrong way, or just loose everyone!
I did not talk to any of you forumers unfortunately, did not stick to a group or anything just went as I pleased.
On getting back, cycled to darsham, had to wait for the next train as there were to many bikes on the first. Then from ipswich waited about 2 hours managed to get a slow train to stratford, just around the time they said a special train for bikes was turning up around 13:10 I think, needless to say pretty awful wen you just want to go to bed! The ride back to greenwich from stratford was very slow. -
