A bit cooler start tithe day, and a bit later as well. The hotel were obviously not geared up for 6 LeJogers & 2 hungry support crew. After a full English breakfast of bacon (cooked on Wednesday!), 2 poached eggs & 1/2 a cooked tomato we were off!
Cheddar gorge was a must do hill for the trip & our group ascended this at 25. Miles, with Debbie (Pantani) Prentice reaching the summit first. A quick water stop the up next was Bristol & the Severn bridge then the final 30 miles to the days destination.
Legs & bottoms are starting to tire, but spirits are still high!
Day 3 - supplementary- The longest day!
After taking in all the sights of Bristol, the Severn bridge was negotiated! Then the rain started
Wye valley was very pretty As was Hereford. Lumpy roads from Monmouth! 2 puncture day and some interesting navigation. Late start meant late finish and ten seconds to get ready for dinner! Another day in the bag.
