Miles travelled: just over 63
Metres climbed : not many (yay!! :))
We set off at 7am as we were determined not to be arriving in the dark…
It felt great to have conquered the large part of the mileage by 11am for “brunch”. The New Inn at Baschurch kindly opened their kitchens early to make us poached eggs on toast!! The yummiest we’ve ever had…
After finally unlocking our bikes (yes the key was in my pocket… It just took 20 mins to find it!!) We set off again…
After Baschurch we seemed to be in a food desert and by the time we made it to Holt we were flagging, but soon revived by Hildegard’s tea room, which seemed like an Oasis in a desert… And she even sponsored us as well!!
From there it was just 10miles to Chester!!
I’m just so grateful it was a flat day 🙂 and for my clip ins… I’ve slightly pulled my left knee so luckily was able to pedal mostly right legged…
On to Preston!!
So pleased to hear the people you meet along the way are so kind and supportive.
I send you a big hug.
Georgina, I hope your knee gets better quickly …..
