I will swim naked through a river of shit if it gets me to a finish line faster but these rides are supposed to be 'fun' not races and I'll be taking the grrl along and neither of us wants face fulls of muck and all the kit cleaning afterwards.

Oh well in that case don't bother. There's still enough mud on the south downs way to require a pressure washer. Do the three rivers ncn trip up north.
I was a bit surprised by the paucity of decent lunch/dinner spots. I could have done with packing more food. But I wouldn't want to carry more weight. Again maybe if you're an audax machine you'd be fine.
Will do a proper write up later maybe. Tired now. Want to get to Winchester and sleep. Are there any extremely boggy sections on the way there? (It was a shit from a butt fest on the way out)

You're probably made of sterner stuff than I am plus with a few dry days I think the worst of it will bake hard.
