• What a night! Lanes went exactly to plan and the weather while a bit fucking nippy for a bit was very clear. Group was great, strong safe riding by everyone. Bit of an epic one for me as I got Tommy Windmill'd twice and and couldnt eat afterwards so had to Inhabit the Bonk for the last 25 miles. So thanks to everyone for their support while I limped to the finish.

    Still the first 60 miles were a joy cruising with Clement on the front through giant empty roundabouts and swooping flat b roads. The Wiltshire morning again had fog laying in the low areas which made for wonderful atmosphere pre-sunrise. And the Stones full of energy folk (and quite a few roadies actually) and drunks didt't disappoint. Swindon was not my fav but it must be said that is a well staffed and stocked Costa.

    You all showed yourself to be true Dons of the Cog. Well done.
