LEJOG Day 2

Arrived safely. Slight detour at Tiverton so 107 miles. Slow due to big steep hills and some off road bits (the combinations causing lots of first gear and some walking.

Beautiful day though. Off to eat now :-)

    Eat and rest well. Thinking of you as you pass near Bristol tomorrow? Was hoping to come and join you for a stretch but I’m on dad duty and not sure I could make it out that far in the Bullitt with the kids. Hope it goes well though!

      Thanks Adam,

      Dad duty is more important.

      I did give our middle son (18 years old) a lift on my Bullitt the other day, very glad it was only 1/2 a mile :-)

    Dave, 102 miles over that sort of terrain is a great achievement, enjoy!

      Chris, Thanks. I was pleased. A good ride especially as I have not done many hard rides the day after another longer ride. So makes me feel better about the rest of the trip :-)
