I left London Fields around 8:30 which is a bit later than I planned as well, mostly due to my Wahoo being annoying and not loading the route. Generally went fine, I went solo but managed to join a club group from St Albans, and then later on in the last 1/3 joined a random group who were doing a return trip. Got there around 3:30am for the sunrise. Had a full English then kept on buying cups of tea so I could stay inside as it was pretty cold until full sunrise. Had a nap on the beach and then got the coach back. Luckily this time I waited to load my bike until the truck was full so when we got back to Millwall it was one of the first out. Overall had a good ride, apart from some persistent back pain related to something else.
