I've uploaded the route via bikehike.co.uk and it gives me 4459 m of ascent.

Hmmm, Quo is saying 5437m of ascent.............

The full gpx goes anti-clockwise (at least it does once I've loaded it into Quo, not tried it on anything else).

Got to have cake, my wife's banana muffins will be fuelling our BB200 adventure too.

Well we didn't go to the Long Mynd but nice 50 mile loop was done. Probably the nicest conditions for bivvying I've ever experienced, warm with almost no dew this morning. Didn't take many pics, but here's the evidence that we got out. http://twitpic.com/6pu9mg Bivvy spot was a bit cheeky, especiall...

Just packing for a midnight raid on the Long Mynd (35 miles away) via some nice bits of Shropshire, might not get all the way there, might go somewhere else, might take some pics.

tbh when travelling fast and light a couple of sachets of Starbucks Via takes a lot of beating and is way less of a faff than anything else other than old skool instant, which it beats hands down.
