Managed 40 miles the day but still rough from the vaccine, so was a slog. Didn't help that it was sopping wet and with a brutal head wind mind. Lost most of my progress so a bit fed up at the mo.

That was a decent effort in the circumstances. The secret is not too push yourself to hard when trying to comeback, good rest is just as important, especially if you've been I'll

At the point where I’m not racing, not seriously training and flogging myself into the ground.
If I’ve had a few too many beers/whiskies and a day crappy weather beckons I’m happy enough to sit on the turbo.
Legs not what they were but still ok.

It's a fun informative book that the author writes in a style to put you in the story of the time period rather than just lay out the facts in a wall of text

I’d highly recommend all the books in mortimer’s series, his Georgian one is out in paperback later this year.
Just seen the finish from Cav. Absolutely text book

Planning, well not planning actually. Just decided,as i have the chance of a lift to Whitehaven tomorrow, to attempt the C2C. I say attempt as I'm not expecting to finish it. Question is, what do you folks take for "proper food" on a long ride? Have energy gels,bars etc. Just wondering what's best to eat?

Certain dirty bastards on here ( and you were with us I seem to recall) were necking pork pies on the C2C in a day
Suppose there will be places on the way you can stop for proper food, not Hartside Cafe unfortunately
