That was immense.
Did it in 4hrs 20mins. Grinned all the way round.
Spent the first 50 in various packs. Pretty much solo'd the home 46.
Didn't see any of the crashes and nonsense everyone reports. Most carnage I saw was in the 1st mile and a half of the depart.
I was so glad the wet didn't come until after we started. It would've been shitty to stand in Stratford in the wet for 90 mins.
Highlights
Riding through a closed Blackwall tunnel to the start.
Stratford to Hammersmith in 25mins.
Rain. Ridiculous rain. Rain so hard it was painful to keep your eyes open.
Perfectly timing going full gas at 6 miles to go. If I had gone a 1/2 mile earlier I would've run out of juice.
Being drafted by some flash git for the last 5 miles then beating him in the sprint down the mall when he tried to Renshaw/Cav my ass.

In all.
I fucking loved every moment.
