After the twice brewed rte (roadworks M6 M4 etc), the beast from the west, operation stack at dover, I didn't even start. At least you gave it a go Bob.Unfortunately I've called my ride already.
Combination of 50mph sections + cold + wind + bumpy road + old age = not having fun. Why would I persist through 24 hours of that?
Maybe next year.
