My initial keenness is tempered with the thought of a pre 6 am rise to get there in time. I get up at just after 6 most week days I don't want my w/e to be an even earlier rise so I am wimping out. Add to that a two hour solo drive.
Be careful on the A420 I know a guy who was hit off riding that section woke up on the verge some time later not knowing what had happened and only realized when he arrived at work late.
Swindon is a bit of shit hole and Shrivenham a bit of a shitty suburban village but the rest of the ride should be pretty nice. The white horse have some interesting history and it is worth checking out. The first on the ride (and oldest is the best though).
