Is it a set route, as going higher seems shorter??

looks like hes sticking to the main roads / dual carriage ways, just to annoy the fark out of the tin box drivers.

*its also probably flatter and smoother and he'll have the benefit of van with flashing amber lights behind him to save him being rear ended (maybe).

The route has to be declared in advance and he will be followed by the official timekeeper and helpers in one or more vehicles. There will be official observers along the route.

Why Great Yarmouth? I mean, love Norfolk and all that, but Ness Point in Lowestoft is furthest east.

Average 24.25 mph for almost 9 hours so far. A whole different level of performance.

I can do that for about 9 minutes. On a pan-flat road with aero-bars!
