Dunwich Dynamo 2024

Description

Dunwich Dynamo 2024 Saturday 20th July

We are back in 2024 supplying transport for you and your bike to London for the start of the Dunwich Dynamo.

Every year thousands of people gather at Hackney Field in London on the Saturday nearest the full moon in July, to take part in the Dunwich Dynamo. It is a free unorganised event which takes you 113 miles to Dunwich in Suffolk. It is now so busy that unless you leave very early or late (most leave between 8pm – 9pm), you can likely just follow the rider in front.

The many pubs in the first half of the evening provide a stop almost whenever you feel you need it, and at Sudbury (half way point) the Fire station put on an all night BBQ. After the pubs close there are a number of “pop up” stops which provide hot drinks, bacon rolls, hot food etc.

Riding into the rising sun towards Dunwich is often very Beautiful and can provide some stunning photo opportunities. When you get to Dunwich you can relax on the beach, take a dip in the sea or just head home. The beach cafe opens at about 4am to provide breakfast etc.

We do our best to transport your bike safely but can take no responsibility if it gets damaged. Between 2014 – 2019 we took 50+ riders and bikes to the start of the Dunwich Dynamo, each year, and no bikes have ever been damaged at all.

We can pick up at Lowestoft, Darsham or Ipswich.

2024 price £ 48.00

All prices rise by £8 if booked after Sat 13th April 2024.

Tickets on sale from Monday 11th March 2024

DO NOT TRY AND CHECK OUT ON THIS SITE AS IT IS NO LONGER SECURE!

This year you will need to ring the shop (01502-218118) between 9.00 – 5.30 (not Sunday) and reserve your place. We will give you our bank details. Your seat will be confirmed once we have received your bank transfer. Alternatively we will accept cash in the shop.

If you have to cancel your place, then we will happily refund your payment if we can resell your ticket to someone else. We are also happy for you to resell your ticket but we will need to know the details of the new owner, so we can check them onto the bus.

We always get late cancellations, so if we have sold the last ticket, we can still put you on our waiting list.
