A life in a day. Ride, eat, sleep. Get up about 7am, wash, slather myself in creams and lotions, big breakfast of cereal, porridge , toast, eggs and maybe bacon and sausage with juice and lots of tea. Set off about 8:15am, ride, eat bananas, power gel, nuts and energy bars. Meet Beth. Eat pasta, Muller rice, pastry. Ride, snack. End, bath. Slather myself in creams and lotions. Eat big dinner, steak and chicken potatoes and veg, big pudding. 9pm sleep.
Scotland welcomed us with blue skies and a strong cold headwind. For 150km. All the way. It took us 8 hours to cover what we would normally do in 6. The first hour yielded a meagre 24 km. I'm exhausted. Big dinner then bed. 5* hotel on Loch Fyne tomorrow. Travel Inn tonight in Kilmarnock. Oh the glamour of the long distance charity ride. I'm tired, sore and determined. I still feel strong.
Thanks for all the messages of support, they really help and Hi to Edward, Abi and Amelia. I love you all and miss you loads.
