Thursday 22 April 2010 Bude to Milton Abbot

Thursday 22 April 2010 Bude to Milton Abbot 50km

Back on the bike and feeling pretty good.  Only had one 'really' steep hill today all the others, and there was no flat piece of road, were less than 14%.

Not much to report, we left Bude, rode on route 3 for a bit then left that to make our way to Launceston and then a bit past that depending on how we were feeling.  We felt OK so made it to a caravan park just past Milton Abbot which gives us less of a ride tomorrow to get into Plymouth.

Sandy and I will be sad to leave England and we would really like to see more but we better make our way to France.

Ah well not much to report today in fact we only took one photo which is hardly worth posting.

Riding up a hill that was just like the Kuranda Range....but cooler


Update:  We were cooking dinner last night when the manager of the caravan park came over and asked if we'd mind if she took our photo for their next brochure......we're going to be famous!!!!

Had a great nights sleep and woke up to only a slight frost on the tent :)  Cooked yummy porridge (a little bit of cinnamon is the key) and had two cups of tea.  Taking it easy this morning as we cant check into the hostel in Plymouth before 3pm and it's only 40km (and countless hill probably) away.
