I've done liverpool to B'ham in a day, it was bloody grim, and then i was in B'ham, which is bloody grim.
I'd advise:
1- Planning a decent route, I didn't and ended up on horrible A roads.
2-Not making it your first cleated ride. I did and ended up doing a zero mph crash at a busy roundabout.
3- Not continuing on to London the day after. I did and then went to see Andrew Wetherall at the Eagle, which was interesting.

Good luck though
