The Dun Run 2010 is planned for 24/25 July, anyone going?

Not sure how earlier people need to book for a return coach, or if there are people planning on riding back to Ipswitch and getting a train from there (I might consider that...).

Also, I know that there are lots of differently paced groups, possibly leaving at different times... any suggestion for a couple (my girlfriend Silvana and I) looking for an easy pace throughout the whole ride?

Cheers,
Diego

Should be going. Having done it last year, I'm definitely going to plan a bit further ahead and have some way of getting from the finish back to home as the additional ride to Ipswich after pretty much killed me!
Groups wise, I'll wait until I decided which bike I'm using.

I've been told that I'm going, so I guess I am...think I am up for being a third wheel in your couples' retreat Smile

please, do!
we are looking forward for good company and a 10 hours' chat Wink

we'll probably leave quite early, unless Silvana reveals herself as a cycling champion!

I'm trying to decide whether a) to go at all, and b) if go, whether to ride there and back like a big boy audaxer.

Like last year, I'm planning FNRttC on Friday night and Dun Run on Saturday.  Unlike last year, I'm planning on taking sufficient refreshments with me for the halfway stop that I don't bonk totally by sunrise.

Andy, any chance of a reprise of last year's beer-in-Ipswich before going home?  That was very welcome

I'm not going to make this, but Mike will do a) and b), thus cycling for the both of us Smile

Alas, I have to pull out as I will now be in the wilds of Ross on Wye on a three day Canoeing Deliverance for my friends stag.

Sorry Dan, I will be winging my way back from Ross on Wye for a very quick stop before continuing on with Jo to North West Scotland for my cycling tour of the highlands.

Nah, I'm a fail.  Need to work, so can't afford more time off.  Plus I'm a wimp.
