Day 7

A short day today only 36 miles which meant time for an afternoon snooze. Liz took our bags in the car today which was a big help. The waitress in a very posh Ludlow cafe was able to help us reset our bike computer which was a real bonus! It was good to meet up with a fellow end to ender Paul who we last saw on the hills of Cornwall. Highlight has been to visit our friends John & Lindsay for a great meal and the best rhubarb crumble and custard on the planet (see photo). Off to Knutsford in the morning - gradually knocking off the miles but still too many hills for the old knees!

  1. Hi Chris and Louise - well, it's a beautiful morning here and we're getting up gently eating bacon sarnies in bed yet there is a slight niggle of guilt as we think about you two hearts pumping, legs burning hill climbing bikers!! So.. if the hairy bikers are hairy - what does that make you two..? Well done so far only another 10 days to go! I was so engrossed in your blog that i nearly missed my stop coming home from ENO - great pics. We're looking forward to hearing all the stories and seeing you when you return.Take care and lots of love, Anna & Dave xx
