if you ever go down west i can give you some good places to go. ive done almost all of of cornwall and devon, and some of south wales on fixed. i highly recommend a gearing in the 60-67GI range as anything above that will probably kill you unless you are superman. i always aimed to do 80miles a day on 65gi and normally did it fairly comfortably.
ive thought about doing the whole coast of kent seeing as i partially live there, but im finding it hard to find the motivation as kent is mainly a skanky hole. rode through bex hill the other day, my god thats a depressing place, but not as bad as pikey paradise folkstone.
