Down to Clapham, then to Brighton, then back up to Uckfield to get the train and then home from Victoria - all in about 120km. Wasn't too congested apart from when a guy came off in a bad way. Did 65 yesterday as a somewhat ambitious warmup also. My legs are tired, as is my head after getting up at 5 with about 4 hours of unbroken sleep.
I'm not going to do it again, though. Too much wobbling/veering dangerously by people who can't control their bikes. I shouted "fucking hell" after a guy nearly took out my front wheel because he was looking backwards one-handed and lost it, and he proceeded to spew abuse about how it was my fault because it was a charity event, not a race. Really can't be arsed with that crap.
