Defection complete. I've registered for this and un-registered from Brighton.
I'll be riding my Brompton. There have been some murmurings on the Brighton thread about Bromptons causing delays, and incompetent Brompton riders overloading the TECs. As a result I've practiced removing and replacing the wheels and I can assure you that I am fully competent at doing this in daylight, with a youtube how-to video to hand. I'm a little less confident about my skills in the dark, so I'm planning on buying one of those squirty cans of puncture fixer stuff in case I do get a puncture (in addition to spare tubes and all that stuff) I'm riding Marathon tyres (not M+).
Now then, what I plan to do is get a train from London on Friday, and a train back from Swansea on Saturday morning. I'm thinking of booking a Swansea return as I'm guessing that may be cheaper, although technically I don't think I'm allowed to terminate my journey at Cardiff. However, I don't think they'll force me to stay on the train. Do they still do Weekend First? If so I will be snoozing first class back on Saturday morning.
I'll probably go for the 20:15 arriving Cardiff 22:23. The one arriving 23:40 is cutting it too fine, I think.
