Go Brad! And congratulations @Thrasher.
Currently sat on train to Darlington wesring wet lycra. But got proper bed at Barnards Castle in return for doing some volunteering. Section from Brampton to Barnards Castle somehow took me 6 hours to do 80k. Keep remembering new bits of awfulness. Halfway down I realised I had to put on more layers and heavier gloves, then got totally confused and thought I'd got someone else's gloves as they didn't fit. Finally realised it was because my hands were swollen.
There were definitely some good bits as well. Need to go through my photos. Rode with some cheerful Thai riders through fens which was great. Enjoyed how much foreigh riders enjoyed the scenery.
