Default Bournemouth to York Run!

Gotta managers meeting tomorrow in YORK!!! Weather looks good so I'm going to bite the bullet and ride up and back. About 4 and a half hours each way (according to RAC route map so less on the bike).

Any tips for long journeys??



p.s. Fitted a socket to my bike for the sat nav!!! How cool am I
