That was my longest ride to date today, and about 80 miles in I lost all my energy and crawled the last 30 or so miles to Dunwich. Got in at 8 after the first 60/70 miles feeling brilliant. Lots of respect to all of the chaps arriving before dawn...
Rode in the big group at the start (I had a skeleton jersey on) and then the second group after the pub stop (with gottimobs, Dave and a few others - rubbish with names). Great fun guys, fast pace and plenty of rest stops. More training for next year and hopefully it should be a bit faster and more pain free.
