Shout out to @Danimal who I met on the way to Amberley. It was great to have company on that last push to the pub after spending most of the day riding alone.
My bivvy bag accumulated some water through the small breathing hole; last night it rained on/off with some stormy periods; wet sleeping bag meant barely any sleep and a bit cold at times. So decided not to proceed to Eastbourne and got the train home.
Next time for a full SDW: lighter gear (had a super warm, but super heavy sleeping bag), tarp/tent, 28t chainring, etc. etc. and some company!
