67 miles today. Not many hills. Some drizzle and one quick big downpour. Fortunately when the downpour happened I was standing under a tree eating a bar of chocolate. I waited a bit longer and the rain stopped.
Traffic was an issue today. I decided to take the A530 fr Namtwich to Whitchurch. when I got on the road I saw frequent signs along the road saying 77 Casulties on this Road in the Last Three Years and 35 Collions in the Last Three years. Made cycling along it a bit unnerving. The A49 between Shrewsbury and Ludlow was very busy too.
Another great b and b The Mount at Ludlow. They've taken all my cycling clothes to wash and dry over night. Hopefully I'll smell less by the time I get to Lands End.
I feel in good shape considering how far I've cycled. One problem that lots of cyclists have is sore bits caused by sitting on a saddle all day. I've been using Hoo Haa Ride and Glide in the morning and then Noo Skin in the evening. This seems to be a great combination for keeping me comfortable during the day.
Met up with my brother and his wife for dinner tonight. Good to see them. Had a big meal and feel full now.
