Really great ride. Nice to see / meet everyone, and thanks for the company. Sorry to bail close to the end. As it turned out, the whole trip to Weymouth turned out to be a terrible idea. There are officially no flat bits between Exmouth and Weymouth, so I ended up spending a lot of the bit after the cafe stop in Exmouth grinding up bits of the A35 at 6mph. Got quite familiar with the sound of my own voice. Also arrived at the sailing about half an hour too late to watch the Ainslie gold medal. Gutted.
EE itself was ace though, and amazing that it stayed dry for most of the time. Personal highlights were flashbacks to my stag do while sweeping down Cheddar Gorge, and the magic carpet ride between the scout hut at the North Curry feedstop. Blagdon Hill was pretty special in the sunrise and the mizzle. Also Iain's unique take on the repertoire of the Presidents of the U.S.A.
Would ride again! But maybe not every weekend.
