Hi Kevin, thanks for your thoughts, I will be breaking the stage down into do-able sections shortly, I like your ideas, so I'll use them as a starting point if thats ok with you. Are you up for one or part of the sections listed?

Cheers

I can do Brighton to anywhere on the M25. I'd rather it was not so far around as J25 however

I'm sure we will get a few more members signing up to split the sections into manageable runs.

Thanks for the confirmation
