Hate to be a Jeremiah, but he's still in deficit to the Godwin Line for the two days put together.  A day of 214 today would only serve to give a three-day average of 206 - ideally Steve would want a much bigger day to make inroads in TG's 'lead'...

GO STEVE!

Is there a Travelodge in Goole? There's a Premier Inn, but he's now north of that.
Are you sure about that? It's hard to imagine Goole having anything 'premier'.

Ha.  Brilliant.  Funny because we all know it to be true!

That cunning plan wouldn't be to bounce back and forth between Ipswich and York for a few days would it? A week of 230 mile days would be a great boost and put you 80+ miles ahead of WR pace.

Fully agree with above. Unless he ups his mileage then come winter he'll get way way behind the 206 minimum and trying to catching up will not be easy at all ???

GO STEVE!

I was thinking the same ... the elevation was much what I would like to see for his purposes too.

I rode the Cambridge York Cambridge permanent with a few others OTP several years ago. Not my cup of tea, way too flat. But it could suit Steve's purposes really well to do something along those lines.

Great riding, Steve!  :thumbsup:
