That was pretty decent, one slightly less pleasant, narrow & busy climb out of Wrotham but it was followed by an awesome fast run practically all the way down to Gravesend.
I went Smallfield, Edenbridge, Shipbourne, Gravesend, ferry to Tilbury, Graysm Rainham Marshes, Dagenham, then CS3, Greenway followed by lots of wrong turns before pie and coffee at LMNH.
As expected, once across the Thames my average speed plummeted. Rainham Marshes was better than I anticipated but CS3 and the Greenway were a pain with all the barriers. I was amused by the roadworks sign that had been placed obstructing the full width of the Superhighway, wouldn't like to have met that at dusk!
