Audax / Re: Double Dutch, Ship of the Fens 200
« Last post by MsG on Today at 02:37:18 pm »Marriott's is the main one on the Quayside, we do the FNRttC Cambridge to King's Lynn breakfast there. The service can be slow but the food is usually good.
I'd like to avoid entering the one way system in KL as it usually leads to me getting lost.

Audax / Re: Double Dutch, Ship of the Fens 200
« Last post by GdS on Today at 02:30:34 pm »East side of station as you look at the map, apparently. I hope the building works have finished as I got stuck trying to find the entrance for a train home last time I was there 😬
yes they have; the L turn at the traffic lights now takes you straight onto the A1307 (old A14) with a right lane to go into the station.
Also there are loos at the start (I can see them on Google maps but not sure when they open), but not in March (they have been demolished not sure if they will be replaced) so either use Greggs or Spoons in Dartford Road.

Audax / Re: Double Dutch, Ship of the Fens 200
« Last post by GdS on Today at 02:25:00 pm »Is the Amici on the London-bound platform? There was a coffee van on the W side when I started the ride there. It was a PITA to get from one side to the other once you had left the station, due to all the building works.
Greggs in the High St claims to open at 0700; I assume the one in the petrol station is 24/7?
Note also if you follow the track through Kings Lynn the only outlets you will pass are Spoons and Carluccios plus one on the quay itself; the High St is parallel just to the East.

Looking at that Cat5 description, what happens if you have more than one fluid posing a serious health hazard? Does it go up to 11?

Audax / The North Coast Classic 600
« Last post by CrazyEnglishTriathlete on Today at 01:59:02 pm »Have finally sorted out my travel arrangements for this. Going up, I couldn't get a cycle reservation on any train for Friday so am travelling up on Thursday - the benefit is to have a free day for a ride on Friday, before the event.
Going back, it seems impossible to get a cycle reservation on the Monday - it looks like there will be engineering works between Perth and Edinburgh that week, so I've booked an early train from Inverness to Perth and then a 5 hour gap to ride the 44 miles from Perth to Edinburgh (which I remember from the Mille Audax) before getting a train back south.
