Most expensive broadband ever

Am on board the ferry from Fishguard to Rosslare. The wireless internet, which is not fast enough to watch you tube, costs £6 for three hours.

Still, my Longest Day practise has well and truly begun. A combination of traffic and roadworks (and allu box panniers) meant 30 miles took 5 1/2 hours with three fuel stops only (one just leaving my home and one just before the ferry).
Numb Bumb!

Jeez Whealie............you need to change gears

I was worried I might get charged by the character so I dropped a zero.

Mind you, key thing about the Longest Day is the time on the bike, not the distance. At one stage this morning I managed 24 miles in 40 minutes (all of it motorway).
The last bit of road to Fishguard is a lot of fun though.

This is true.

Last august riding back from Berlin in 2 days, about 350 km a day. Long days, 12+ hours, tagging along behind a Jawa 175 and a MZ cargo sidecar (full) with a busted clutch. Eeeeasy going, lots of time spent keeping lorries at bay while the MZ was limping up hills at 50 km/h on a 100 km/h road...

By day 2 I was comprehensively wasted.

Mileage was pretty good mind you.
