I did it. 2 hours 21 minutes, delighted. Beautiful day, very fast until Carlingford,averaged almost 40KPH until stop at Four Seasons.

furiousox, you seem to have had it very easy, I notice, you freewheeled the
last 40K.

Cadence sensor packed in at the food stop.
Probably needed to resync it but didn't bother.
Much as I wish I could freewheel uphill...... :pac:
