From Warrington To Ludlow
Distance Travelled: 94 miles!!!
Ave speed: 12.5 mph
Max speed: 34.9 mph
Weather: Sunny with a late heavy shower
Cycling time: 7 hours 29 mins
Total Distance so far: 633 miles
After breakfast at Asda, we were on the road by 8.45am. After a steady morning we made a mistake. The result was that our long day in the saddle was lengthened even further, as we took (for the first time) the wrong route, which in all, probably cost us a hour and an additional 10 miles. It was Shauns fault! No it was Robs Fault! No it was Shauns fault! No it was Robs fault! Actually we both missed the turning!
We were soon back on the right road, passing through Whitchuch, Wem (our lunch stop), Shrewsbury and Church Stretton and hitting the 600 mile mark. Fortunately the final 20 miles to Ludlow were downhill and we were able to make quick progress.
Beacuse we were so tired we were unable to fully appreciate the beautiful town of Ludlow and we would definately like to go back to visit
For the second night we were in a travel lodge. We were joined at dinner by Alex Thompson from Rob’s work. Seeing Alex, again brought home how far we have actually come.
