Left Taunton at 08:45..and it was rain all the way for the next 2 hrs to Lands End.Saw a few LEJOGer's and JOGLER's on their way in and out of Lands End.. when we go to within 6 miles from Lands End..the rain stopped and never appeared again for the whole day..Went to register at the Lands End Hotel.. Two motorcyclist's had just completed the JOGLE in 3 days.when the receptionist asked how long they had taken ,she took the wind out of their sails when she told them some cyclist do it in 2 days!!..Set off about 11:45 after having my photo taken at the Lands End signpost..stopped off at St Michaels Mount for a piccie... then decided to follow a route I'd plotted off the beaten track!... needless to say it was slow going, and Helen wasnt too keen on single track roads .. 26 miles from Lands End decided to up the pace and get onto the A roads...hills hills hills.. all the way to St Austell.. until I arrived at our £9 Travelodge.

ReplyDeletewell actually Helen said, those B roads were a bit of a nightmare.. one car wide.. and not in my own little car.. not sure what i would have done if i had come head on with another car... don't think i would have been able to reverse the 100 yards or so to the nearest passing point.. but i survived and lived to tell the tale.. oh and, lesson learned.....stick to the A roads...
