You are of course at liberty to do whatever you wish, Steve. But I'd challenge your assertion that the approach you describe is in the spirit of the race, as it doesn't sound like it to me! This is what Mike Hall said, which is still in the race manual FAQ:
Can I just ride it at my own pace?
There are no time limits as such so technically yes. You will be a part of all the fun and have your ride tracked and followed on the race website but the control points and finish lines are not permanent features and so may not still be there when you get there. TCR No.7 is actually a race, so if it’s a relaxed cycle tour you want this might not be for you. Places are limited on the race so spare a thought for those who might want to be in a race and be competitive.
