Not at all. And I didn't leave right at the start - I gamely struggled along until Haymarket, and then couldn't stand it any more and raced off home. It's funny, I used to really enjoy it (last did it almost three years ago), but tonight I just got more and more nervous about how many people we were annoying. It wasn't fun at all - I just felt we were riding along being hated by everyone who saw us.

Oh, I didn't see you! But you're right, even since I've been going (about a year 9 or so times), it's got much more aggressive, the 'incidents' have become more serious, the pace has gone right down and we stop a whole lot more. Got interviewed for Sky News at the end tho. Graham might kill me :p
