Back to Kesgrave

We woke up at the Kings Head and went downstairs for breakfast. I had some great local sausages an egg, a bowl of Alpen along with some very good multigrain toast with black currant jelly. We checked out and bought wine bread and cheese ecttt for a picnic on our bike travel trough Woodbridge on our way to Kesgesve.

Every pub advertised events to celebrate the Queens Jubilee

We got Jodi one last expresso shot and hit the road. Along the way we passed some nice free range chicken and hog farms along with some national campground, biking and hiking areas. We biked along untill we we got to downtown Woodbridge, then found another Kings Head pub and had another pint.

We then headed out of town toward our final biking destination Kesgrave. As soon as we got to the edge of town we came upon their rural inter city bike path where we biked through some really interesting English forest and before we knew it we were near Brian's flat. We stopped and had a fancy wine cheese fruit and bread picnic in a field a block or so then biked a 100 yards or so and our grand biking adventure was over.

My fully loaded rental bike at the end of the journey

I was about ready for a nap after humping the bike with 50 or 60 pounds strapped to the back through the back roads of Suffolk for 3 days. The only real downside was a nasty allergy attack after the ride. The unseasonably warm year gave the area a pollen spike that was reminiscent of the pollen heavy spring that we had in the states this year.

As usual, humorous vending machines
are often spotted in pub toilets

Resting after a ride

Taken from a bridge as we entered Woodbridge.
There are plenty of rotting boats along this part of the coast.
It reminds me of riding through small SC towns where most of the old is rotting.
One difference in England there seem to be many less empty, dilapidated building.
