The idea is to ride to Lowestoft on the Friday. Stay in a Travelodge and have a few shandys etc. :lol: Then get up in time to see the Sunrise at 5:57. Then back in the Hotel for breakfast etc and get ready to ride to South Stack lighthouse on Anglesey to watch the Sunset at 20:23
Rode over, noticed about 8-10 'crosser' type bikes parked up, booked in, changed & went to the bar, saw no recogniable faces & no clearly definable group of bikers so had two beers & got bored, went back to my room, checked internet & had a kip, got up to see sunrise & 'crossers' were all gone, after seeing sunrise rode back & had breakfast, tidied room, booked out & no 'crossers' had returned so pottered off on the pre-posted route, didn't see any bikes/scooters by Kings Lynn so took my own route from there to South Stack.
As this was an Air Ambulance ride & as Imet nobody to give money to I will add this donation to the intended donation on the arboretum ride in a fortnight or so's time.

Hopefully there will be more pictures when Lee logs on, I 'cut & run' home from South Stack as it was only 2 1/2 hours ride & I wasn't aware of the proposed location of overnight stay of the group on Holyhead/Anglesey.
Trip total for me was 740 miles, trips like this make me think 'I really must get something more economic'
