Starting to get geared up for 'Saxons' on 1st July. I've bumped the fee up a bit [to £20], to include more food at the Harwich Pier Cafe control and to book the smaller hall [St Mary's Centre] in case we need an overflow sleeping area. Last time was about right, though some locals went home for a kip or brought camper vans etc.
Same 'Full-TLC': Food at start, Harwich [158km], back at base [268km] as well as several cafe control options en-route. Romantic candle-lit midnight feast before the option of a sleep [floor only - bring your own bedding]. Then breakfast/brunch/lunch pub finish next door!
With an 11:00 start time, ECEs nicely to a 600 [or 500 if you want the Randonneur 2000 medal]. Last long'un before LEL?
