Thanks Ben. That's useful. The plan is to head anticlockwise from Reading where my brother lives. So we'd hit the drivetrain wrecking zone late in the ride. I've ridden the area you're talking about and it's very sandy.
There's talk of cancelling the trip due to all the rain recently, but you'd have had similar last weekend and clearly survived so maybe we just need to grow a pair and get on with it.
