Day 6 – Friday 27th July

27 07 2007

A good day cycling another 80 miles.  It was cloudy and some drizzle but the most difficult aspect was the wind.  This was quite strong especially climbing up Shap Fell, one of the most exposed parts of their journey and probably the highest.  William said at times he had to lean hard over the front wheel to keep it on the road.  Andy, like Mike, was near at hand to provide food and drink at regular intervals.

They camped near Morecambe, close to the sea, had their shower ,meal, a quick drink and bed!

Tomorrow, if the traffic is not too bad, they hope to cycle another 80 miles.  If they can reach Whitchurch or thereabouts, Andy will drive them home so they can have a bit more comfort. (He will drive them back to Whitchurch after they have rested so they don’t cheat!) 

This all depends on what sort of day they have tomorrow but at least it shouldn’t rain.
