.... no reflection on Bill the organiser but I wouldn't rely on the .gpx - the street map relationship with the GPS and satellites makes it very easy to miss turns etc. (If you have a London A-Z map book take it with you! - better still study it with the route sheet before you go)

@vickster and I did this last weekend. A lovely, friendly audax with a crew of loyal followers (people had done it half a dozen times or more) but I'm afraid it is not for me. Apparently plotted by Slartibartfast - lots of emphasis on the crinkly bits along the coast - but it was the cobblestones that did me in.
  1. First my pen bounce out of my bag, never to be seen again.
  2. My right clavicle is in two pieces, but that never gives me trouble. Cobblestones made it ache.
  3. Yesterday my Carradice SQR mount was hanging off at an odd angle. The cobblestones had rattled a bolt out.
The sights were nice and it was a lovely day, but by the last info control we were done with the ride, so bolted back to the start via Clapham Common.

How did everyone else get on?
