Well I didn't get near my 24hr mark but it was a course record by ~2hrs apparently.
"First half of the Beast was very enjoyable - nice weather, cool scenery (bit of a headwind though) and some good chatting with Adrian who's training for the TransAm this year. Second half it all went bad with Garmin gremlins galore, a lack of open shops and so a lack of food, a lack of clothing (I was seriously considering asking some coppers if I could kip for 20mins in a cell just to warm up) and just general misery. I'm sure I tried about 10 different service stations with all the associated detours before I found one with a working toilet. City boy ignorance shining through where everything is open at 4am here! Doh! Anyway, I never have to do another 600 again so there's that.."

Good work sir.
I've booked a hotel for a kip in the middle(ish) of mine next week :-)

Good work @hippy
Do you enjoy the strange looks at Taunton Deane Services? (The K&SW 600 uses that as a control and it's always fun to see motorists faces as you turn up to a Motorway Services on a bike...)
Anyway, I never have to do another 600 again so there's that..
Just one from StQeY to Brest and another back again. But they'll be a LOT different from a lone bash to the SouthWest and back.
