Thanks for the words of encouragement, skive. I'm thinking I'll do both and just eat loads to try to avoid the bonk!
dublinkevin, I'm planning on doing this fixed as I guess most others are. Having a look at the route there is only one hill that might defeat a fixed gear. The maximum gradient is about 17% which is a bit of a slog, but usually manageable.
