Suffolk Sunrise 100 - 9 May 2010

[Auntie Helen]

Anyone doing this one? Registration £25 this year, no ferry crossing to avoid the queues (phew!)

I'm tempted again.

If not 100 miles one can do 100km.

I probably will if not racing that weekend. Couple of people here at work are looking to do it too.

Have this marked as a possible in my New Year's resolutions. Worth doing?

 

[redjedi]

I'll keep an eye on this and see what I'm doing nearer the time.

They had a bar and a BBQ at the finish last year, plus they had 3 food stops and a nice lunch stop on the route with free food and drink . I can guess where you will be on the 9th of May now.

I think it's worth doing, especially now they aren't doing the Ferry which was a bit of a problem with hanging around (and getting my trike onto it!)

I thought they catered excellently with masses of food - including lots of cake. Signage was generally good too.

I may try for the 100 miles this time and if so I'll ensure I haven't done 85 miles the day before. I may do the 100km if I feel a bit seedy or if I don't get there early enough though!

Sold! See you there.

Highly tempted. Fitness allowing, I'll be there. Probably.

Bit of a shame about the ferry. I know there were queues last year but the ferry was a nice feature of the ride. The section out to Felixstowe was pleasant and the immediate contrast in countryside type on the other side of the river made the experience a bit different. I got there at 8ish and the wait was about 15 minutes; I hear it was a lot longer later on.

Agree with Rezillo, I like the ferry part and use this often during the summer. Unsure about this one but if last year was anything to go on this filled up quickly so don't leave applications too late.

I'm doing this one... I booked it into the calendar when we got it.
Must register though.

Well, out in the rain first thing on this ride today with my Cyclechat jacket on but, unlike last year, no others to be seen. Anyone else go?
