Right, having reccied for the last time this weekend I've made a slight change to the route. However, Bikely is being a bit of a pig and won't let me upload the new route at the mo.
I'll take this opportunity to directly quote RPM from the Camber Sands discussion, "I just think anyone planning to ride 50/14 brakeless straight outa hoxton for their first long ride will suffer". Kent is not flat, and even the first section of countryside south of Swanley is, to put it bluntly, a bit of a cunt.
Plus I'll also add that anyone planning to ride this Brakeless™ should definitely consider adding a front brake. There are several steep downhill sections on narrow roads, with many of them leading directly to a T-junction at the bottom.
Anyway, enough of the ranting, I'll add the new route when Bikely starts to play ball.
