Any wait to enjoy this on London - LE - London

Still highly recommend that ride - you will invariably end up riding a big chunk of Cornwall at some unsociable hour and in those scenarios it's very agreeable : )

I’m hoping to have an appropriate pint at St Austell

I did Kernow & South West as my 600 qualifier for PBP in 2011 so I entered Cornwall around 11am and left at 4am-ish.

I did all the nice roads down through Launceston/Looe/Snozzle/Truro/etc to Penzance in daylight (getting to Marazion around dusk). It was then dark for the soul destroying slog back North through Newquay (1am-ish) and Camelford back up to Bude.

Less said about the second half (Taunton/Yeovil/Seaton/Exeter) the better. I think I only started to enjoy it when I stopped at an offy 100m short of the finish to grab some beers.

Proper type II fun though.
