2011-07-16/17 Sat/Sun - Dunwich Dynamo DD19

Last year I drove the largest white van I could lay my hands on and it was, in short, wasn't large enough by at least ten bikes. Even with a forum wedding (seriously, what self respecting cyclist set up a wedding on DD weekend) I reckon this year will be at least as popular as last year.

Couple of bits of advice for the van driver.

1) Park the other side of the park from the pub to avoid clashing with cyclists when you leave.
2) When you get to the beach, park close to the entrance to the parking area to avoid clashing with cyclists.
3) When you start driving away from the beach, don't even think about getting above 20mph until you've cleared the heath and got through Westleton.
4) If you do set up and alternative food stop, the location last time in Sudbury was pretty much ideal. As far as I can tell I didn't piss off any of the locals and was easily spotted by all people.
As a suggestion, in order to run a support vehicle and to operate within the budget, two large white vans might fit the bill. Also, Big Yellow Storage sells large rolls of bubblewrap at a reasonable price. Good luck to whoever picks up this task, it's kind of fun and a pretty rewarding experience.

Im thinking a transit luton box van. did you only have one level of bikes tsk or did you manage to get some on top (possibly laying flat with loads of bubblewrap?) then I could drive the van without any problem. (dont have the licence for anything larger than the biggest transit.)

if im not doing the van and someone else does it, im officially offering my services for a back/food stop/luggage wagon/broom waggon/ambulance in a renault espace for the people on the coach/any foremengers. also doubles up and might actually be able to hold 5 bikes on its own.

I like the idea of two large vans. I would offer my services for one at least. anyone for the other?
