Today was a pretty good day. Matt and Jonathan left early in the morning for Gloucester, they made it to lunch after 60 miles in good time. The route was quite challenging, and as a result Jonathan decided to retire for the day and allow Matt to continue unhindered.

A highlight of the day was the hot lunch of bacon butties behind the trailer in a lay-by, hats off to the chef(Ross) who cooked the bacon to our individual tastes. Matt finished the second leg late but still in time for a good dinner.

Matt maintains that he would have arrived more promptly at the campsite if the sat-nav hadn’t led him over several steep and unnecessary hills shortly before arriving at the site.

The support crew enjoyed a relaxing evening at the campsite, and turned in for an early night. Matt was just glad to hit the hay.
