first day went ok. Got early start down a30 with detour at Bodmin and pathfinders village near Exeter which gave break from a30 noise! Joined in a time trial on a 30 for good measure. Went up via Weston super for some reason. Police road block sent me off course then lost wahoo route as over 100 miles. Re-route using wahoo was crazy sending me along mtb track so had to double back. Severn bridge crossing was highlight but route to Monmouth was tough.
Had tumble just out side Exeter when tried to jump up into bike line away from close following car. Few grazes and landed on my back. When set out today old back injury flared and could not push pedal and pain to much to continue so bailed at Telford. My route was probably not great but views were worth it.
Shalll try again next year in mid summer. Oh yeah had too much kit.
