Early 7:30 start to run up to Hunny. Wet roads but only "visor" rain.The Met office said by the time I get there it will be raining, and they were right
Took a pic of some very confusing detour signs that I completely ignored.
Planned B west to Thetford forest to check out the bicycle trails.
Very posh.
The one way entrance (after about a half mile of track) was auto barriers with number plate recognition and £3 an hour to park!!!!
Severely unchuffed and already in (that HAS to be wrong ), I park up and go to pay ( I only wanted a look see FFS) and the machine doesn't recognise my reg number. Enter it manually and it says I have paid.... WTF. No I haven't!
Go to the Info booth and a very helpful lady says " ahh.......you're on a motorbike........They are FREE......."
As is my god given right
As I go back to the bike I get chatting with some MTB riders just leaving for the trails.Yes it is pricey to park they say but worth it.
Another bunch a bit more clued up tell me about some spots nearby to park for free if I don't mind a short ride in.
Perfect......
Head off out and the auto barrier is kind and lets me past.
On to Ipswich via b roads and cut home.
7 hours and 270 miles, all good.
I am told there is a football match on tonight.
Coltishal reserves v Stalham....Or summit.
Might watch that
