I found it blowy on the way out.. My partner arrived slightly late so we never found a big group to ride in. Fueling worked well though. Felt like packing in at Chepstow at 4pm because it was so late t carried on. Glorious 4 hours from the bridge until it got dark, then a bit of a struggle home. Not really sure what time we finished but somewhere around 22 hours for 415km.
Ash, lovely to see you again. Hippy, was that you on a planet x bike or did I just never see you.
