Och, it's fiendish, the only significant way to cut down distance and climbing is to go Whitley Bay - Morpeth - Kielder and cut out the first drinks stop at Elsdon, saves 12km & 300m.
Might be a good idea anyway because of all the excitement at the start and the "relay" riders who'll be going faster.
Any locals please advise - any good reasons to go up to Elsdon if you were riding from Whitley Bay to Kielder?
Later on it pays to stick to the route, it's slightly shorter via Sanquhar but off route for the last 80k sounds like a recipe for no support.

Yesterday it was snowdrops in a Co Durham coastal dene, today in the 'Secret Garden' at Wallington Hall, Northumberland, it was crocuses.
This annual display of around 100,000 crocuses covers some 3,500 square metres in this popular National Trust property garden.
They were planted just a few years back across a two-week period by some 20 volunteers.
It really is a breath-taking feast for the eyes!
