We left early 7:30am the B&B provided a packed breakfast as they don’t serve breakfast until 8:30am. We said goodbye to Paul he was going to cycle and train to Welsh Bicknor to get his car an go back to London.
With an exception of the last 5 miles into Taunton where we used the canal we took A39/A361 roads rather than the planned route we were in Taunton for breakfast at about 9:30. We then carried on the A38 to Willand and stopped for Lunch Cullompton. After a carvery lunch and pint of light bitter we carried on B3181 into Exeter which ran mostly along the motorway route.
We arrived at the YHA in Exeter at 3:00pm much earlier than expected having done 55 miles as opposed to the ambitiously planned 70 miles.
We have now done 909 miles.
Hya Sav - almost there and I am very impressed and proud of you. Hope the weather improves for you. All the best. Lili
ReplyDeleteYou've done brilliantly, despite, by the sound of it not great weather and some unfortunate equipment failures. I'll buy you a pint, or two when you get back!
