45 minutes to do half a mile at one point due to the 'traffic control' at a junction - cyclists filling the road for as far as the eye could see. A few pub stops, some long stops for cakes and nom-noms, waiting for some people to trudge up Ditchling Beacon, many traffic jams of bikes at the lights in London, a broken chain, 3 punctures and one person getting lost. Oh, and stopping to laugh at one roadwarrior who managed to go over the handlebars going uphill. Like I said, it's quite fun, but it ain't fast.
