A good ride, other than a couple of nasty main road sections (that were just about tolerable on a Sunday). I made surprisingly good progress on the first half, for which I got karmic retribution in the form of my chronic knee problems flaring up painfully about 10km after Evesham. I had to keep stopping and standing up to relieve it, but made it to the finish, and onward to home.
I note that fire hydrant signs make excellent info controls, on account of being both unambiguous and, by design, easy to spot.
The weather cleared up nicely after a chilly start. Didn't really notice anything in the way of wind.
