You can get more AAA points for the entire route though if it's hilly enough & you care about that sort of thing, assessed a few massively over-distance DIYs last year, partly I suspect for that reason.
Yeah, I remember some of Dave's from Westerley being overdistance, as he'd made them to collect AAA points. I'm just too lazy to alter routes and figure I'm quick enough to add the extra without much drama. But now I reckon I could just stretch it to 400k and get that validated instead.
