20 riders from the West Suffolk Wheelers left Bury St Edmunds for the 50 miles ride to the coast. After 3 hours and several stops for punctures and the odd darting behind a tree we arrived just after 8 o'clock at Munchies Cafe in the High Street.

Given the early start and the distance I treated myself to the full 'Suffolk Breakfast' including toast, butter and a rather nice marmalade. The service was excellent and the food even better and with a water station to replenish drinks bottles what a find! It gets even better, after sending an email thanking them we received an email back suggesting next time we visit a 10% discount will be offered….result!

We left shortly after nine o’clock and had a club photo taken on Maggi Hambling's 12ft-high scallop shell memorial to Benjamin Britten we travelled home on a completely different route which was courtesy of Richard ‘TomTom’ Seggar who safely got us home just after 1 o’clock which wasn’t bad given it was father’s day and Summer Solstice. We are planning another trip starting early morning later in the year, suggestions please.
