Anyone else doing this? (who isn't currently on LEL?!) looks rather fun, reminiscent of the Bungay Roger of 10 years ago; visiting the furthest E point in the UK in Lowestoft

Yep I've signed up. It will be my first Audax since I failed the Green & Yellow Fields back in May.

Yep, I've just entered this. Coming up from London, will stay in a B&B or something and make it into a nice little weekend. Looks really great.

What an excellent ride! I managed to blag camping space in the boatyard; where Manotea had pitched up earlier for an ambitious (but successful!) front loaded ECE 200+400.

Just missed the ferry after 6k due to a nav cock-up so we didn't see anyone else until Orford. Also missed the errant gert plastic tubes that washed ashore near Winterton but loved the rest of the coast we rode past

Strange that Framlingham has now become an iconic location thanks to a Mr Sheeran (although you do have to crane your neck to see the castle from the route)

Thanks Jonathan for a great route and hospitality!
