We have stayed in a fantastic hostel in Seahouses ,lovely clean and welcoming and we all had an early night. ( apart from joe and Amanda who chased each other around till 11pm like a couple if school children)
The last leg is about 65 miles which will take us to just under 300 miles over 4 days
This has been a huge challenge for so many of the group as some have never done this many miles in their life and also 8 of us are closer to 50 than 40!
How did Joe do I hear you ask? As David would say
‘The boy did good’ he was at the front of the group for most of the 4 day’s
We think if all goes according to plan that we will be at the sand dancer between 4.30 and 5pm but we have had quite a few issues over the past 3 days to name but a few –
Jacquie fell in the canal
Paul S bottom bracket on his bike snapped
Bens back wheel bearing broke
We have had 3 flat tyres
Amanda’s back end blew 🙂 and she fell off her bike
Dan fell off his bike due to his new clip on pedals
Chris’ bike fell off the trailer
Joe and Mard nearly god sucked under a bus is Seahouses
Eileen nearly fell in the canal
It’s really has been great fun whilst it has been hard work, and it has been nice meeting you all along the way and also to see your comments
Just as a side note we noticed a comment on men not hanging washing out 😦 well I can tell you that one of them was behind the camera and the other ones were sorting all the bikes out for next day, but Paul young was doing his own washing and making his bed like an army commando 🙂
