Murder on the B4361

1 dead bird
a couple of repairs
3 wrong turns
4 rashers of bacon missing on a plate
etc.........etc...

anyhow....

Day started off well with a full breakfast as always, although we were both disappointed as we are now connoisseurs of fry ups, that there was a lack of bacon with this one, it was only when leaving the bed and breakfast that the landlady followed us out with the said bacon apologising about her mistake and offering us bacon sandwiches to take with us, so it all ended well in the end. But that was how the day pretty much went.

After a couple of wrong turns and a couple of minor running repairs the day progressed nicely, avoided all the rain which was nice and managed to skirt around the Midlands which was a bit disappointing personally for me but I think Mr Gough was quite relieved.

All in all a very uneventful day apart from when Andy G somehow managed to run over a bird as it flew past, with his trailer!!!!

Arrived in Leominister at about 4:00 which tells its own story as it was a relatively easy ride today, although Leominister does seem a rather strange place as it was completely deserted when we arrived (4:00 in the afternoon on a Bank Holiday)!!!

Anyway marching onto Bath tomorrow and hopefully catch up with some friends who we can bore senseless with our tales of cycling heroics.
