So they spread us out over three days, but we manage to change the last one. So now HP and Rune are flying out and will arrive in Manchester tonight. I'll be there tomorrow before lunch and Sveinung a couple of hours later.
If everything goes well now we've lost one full day, which I guess is better than losing out on the whole trip. Three of four now have transfer flights, so hopefully the bikes will make it.
Looking into the route now. Either we stick to the plan and do harder days or we try to cut the distance a bit.

If we do the Usk version (https://www.strava.com/routes/3110114989377265304) without mods, the days should be something like this:
Monday 75 (75km 400m)
Tuesday 182 (107km 1950m)
Wednesday 277 (95km 1760m)
Thursday 400 (123km 1360m)
Friday 520 (120km 1190m)
Saturday 636 (116km 460m)
Then we need to get going quite early the final day so we'll make it to Paradise in time.
