Short days and freezing cold that year. I decided not to ride in the dark so:
Day 1, Hemel Hempstead to Berwick upon Tweed.
Day 2, BuT to JoG.
Day 3, JoG to ?
Day 4, ? To HH.
Edited to add that journey is about 1,300 miles according to Mr Google, who did not exist in those days. He reckons it is almost 24 hours there and back, so 6 hours riding a day. That sounds about right from what I remember. Checking an on-line daylight database for 18th Nov. 1987 I found that the sun rose at 8am and went to bed at 4pm. 8 hours daylight. 18th Nov. 1987 was also the day of the Kings Cross fire.
