+1 on all the above. I wear over a long sleeve jersey on days when it's near-freezing and it's perfect.
Packs down nice and small so will be taking it on all the rides I do with colder night sections as well.

Also Brooks Saddlebag - honey brown. It's been on the bike a few times but I've never really bothered using it. Good nick, a few scratches but nothing major. Great for Eroica / cap off a vintage build etc £35

Can't recommend these enough, especially if you do multi-day rides in grotty weather.

Tend to fill those little eardrop canisters you get on eBay with 10-20ml of lube to take with me just in case.

Realise I want to be in the 84hr if I can, now regretting not riding anything over 300 last year.
Might be slim pickings by the time I can pre-register...

I've done this ride a few times (Rapha London>Manchester route in reverse) and it's great - are you planning to do it all in one day? As it's tough that way round, with about 70km of Peaks at the end.
If you're breaking it up over 2 days, The Boot in Repton is my favoured stop - leaves you a lumpy but short 2nd day into Manchester. It makes it a much nicer trip than trying to do it in a 1-er.
You can cheat in the Peaks and do a bit up the A515 into Buxton which is flatter and faster (but not as nice)

Fixed it for £6 myself, it'll do the job - ta for the recco @user800813590210

I'd definitely try it just in case I was unlucky just got someone in customer service who was following the book to the letter. Like I say, this hasn't happened to me with other repair requests with eBay stuff.
(the crash wizard on their website will take you 5 minutes, tops too)
