Was a good experience, even getting a double puncture from a massive pot-hole. Glad I packed two spare tubes! Other cyclisits also fell foul of the pot-hole and Eddie went down to warn people to avoid it, as he came back to help with the puncture someone fell off after hitting the whole.
As Eddie said seeing the whole road lit up in front of you with flashing red lights makes for a surreal experience, like some cheap ass moving disco.
After the punctures Hayden wrapped himself in a thin blue light making him easier to spot flying off into the night and meant Matt P and I could follow the others. By the time we hit the feed station they were well on their way. Mr Power needed recharging as he looked like death cooled down. The rest of my journey was a mix of full on speed and passing showers. Was glad to finish and get to the train.
