To be fair, it was more epic than I’d imagined - we had pretty crap weather - lots of wind and rain (and cold - ice inside the tents cold!)
It was the Ride Across Britain - so supported in the sense that you’re not carrying anything and all food provided, but camping and not hotels. - it definitely wasn’t the “holiday” to tour the country as I’d imagined and instead was a very tough endurance challenge - partly driven by the weather but also just 110 miles a day is definitely fatiguing!! Two ski station climbs in Scotland didn’t help either! (Glenshee and Lecht)…..overall an amazing experience.
Oh, and the bike was fantastic - super comfy with no physical issues coming to bear during the ride for me so my setup was good - three punctures in crappy weather/roads on first two days and new set of front pads needed by day 5 for the same reason but otherwise all good!!
