Rain....woke to rain!!! My last day of riding and it was lashing with rain!! I spoke with 'Geoff the farmer' (Adams landlord) and we both agreed it was about to stop!!!
The M40 was jammed...but the rain had stopped! I filtered all the way down the M40....and rode past miles of traffic on the M25. What was i do here in England?....have not seen jams like this anywhere else in the world!!!
Stopped at my old place of work - had luch with some of the old lunch time group and caught up with lots of other people at work. Asked for a job....will have to wait and see!!
I was now late for my appointment at etribes HQ.....ended up riding like a hooligan across the Essex and Suffolk countryside to make it to Sudbury for 1530. A few pics later and then it was time for some food.....what else....but the McDonalds in Sudbury:
So.....it was now time for the final leg of my trip.....the 15 miles from Sudbury to Colchester on the B1508 and then A1124 - these are the roads i rode almost every sunday last year with Adam and Andy - the best piece of biking road near to my house!!!
Made it home just after 1800.....and pulled left into my drive. Job Done.
