Well after an unexpected late start to the day (that was entirely Matts fault) we were on the road (from our meet point at Thickthorn services) to Lands End at around 6am.

The journey was pretty smooth and no major delays, apart from the copious toilet stops for Matt.

We arrived at Lands End at around 2:30pm, making our journey time 8.5 hours including stops!

With an hour to eat some pasta and other random energy foods, get changed, check the bikes over and have a brief look around Lands End.

Meeting the Mayor of Penzance at around 3:45pm, we briefly talked about our journey and the charities then they set us off on our short 18 mile journey to Hayle.

Lets put it this way…Norfolk is very flat…the hills on the route we picked were killers!  Climbing hills slowly and descending very, very fast, the legs were tired, and we will shortly need some new break pads!  The highlight a hill climb from 40 feet above sea level to 550 feet above sea level in a couple of miles…ouch!

Never mind, with a few detours we completed the journey of 21miles in 1 hour 33 minutes.  Tired from the day, we’re now off for something to eat then an early night before embarking on tomorrows cycling to Boscastle (lets hope there arent any floods).

Dont forget to wake up nice and early tomorrow morning to listen to the catch up on BBC Radio Norfolk.  Our expected on air time is around 6:45am.
