On the cycling front, its been a pretty good day in terms of the terrain. However, the aches and pains resulting from yesterdays cycling have surfaced. We’re currently suffering with painful knees, hands, feet, backs and obviously saddle sore. Most of the journey seemed downhill for the 80 miles, resulting in an easier ride. The weather hasn’t been too kind today, with heavy rain being quite predominant. Today we’ve gone through 2 new inner tubes and two punctures, all on my (Alistair) bike!

Unfortunately today we had a bit of a problem with the car, thankfully it only occurred when reaching the campsite and will hopefully be fixed tomorrow morning. All the luggage from the trailer is drying after getting wet yesterday. We’re currently enjoying the Perth campsite (for the second time on our journey) and the dry weather.

Day 3 tomorrow is about 130 miles, travelling from Perth to Peebles.
