Yes it is (did a similar distance myself). Not as long as the ride I did last Friday though (Portsmouth to Swansea...223 miles).That's a loooonnnnngggg ride.

cracking ride - got a little lost, found an unconscious man and crashed car, phoned for ambulance, cycled 240 miles.
Got home, went to bed

Nice distance, you didn't decide to cycle home afterwards then ?

Well done.
Well done.
I got into the beach at Dunwich a few minutes after 6.00am. I am very pleased to report that apart from a couple of wrong turns the ride was completely uneventful. No issues with the bike which performed faultlesly and no issues with me, who also performed faultlesly 
I had a lift home and got home middayish and went to bed for a few hours. Then started watching the TdF and nodded off, finally waking up at about 11pm so went to bed and slept through till 7:30 this morning. Hopefully I have caught up with my sleep!

I assume you cycled home in the end Andrew, what time did you leave Dunwich ?

I had a leisurely roll to Dunwich, via most of the stops, and rolled in at 8am to the sight of my sister waiting for me in the car park, with a pint of guiness in her hand.
The best DD yet I feel. Recovery day today. Kit everywhere in the house still and I'm yet to have a bath! Yes I'm single! Ha ha.

Like Andrew_Culture I became very cold at the finish, so much so I was really shivering. I had decided to take a small camping cooker for a fry up and hot drink but at the last minute changed my mind and decided not to to save a bit of weight. Because of a previous back injury and spinal surgery I find standing still for more than a few minutes very painful so queueing for half hour for food was just not on. If I ever do the DD again my camping cooker will be the first thing I pack on the bike so a hot drink will be available to me.
