End of day 8, 590ish miles so far! Today was tough, with rough road surface and a head wind that was slowing us down as we cycling down hill! Also hitting Glasgow at 5pm and trying to navigate through was impossible n very dangerous! In dumbarton tonight cycling to fortwilliam tomorrow, 80+ miles! Next 2 days are the ones I've been looking forward to! Travelling past loch lomand and loch ness. I will be taking lots of pictures :-)
St David's-Ammondford
So today was tough as we expected. A day of hills, amazing scenery and too many punctures! The morning we travelled parallel to the sea and with the sun out the views were absolutely fantastic! Stopped for lunch after about 30miles and filled our boots! After lunch the sun went in and the temperature dropped! So an extra layer was applied and we got going! The rest is a bit of a blurr fuelled by Jaffa cakes, sugary drinks, malt loaf and the occasional chocolate raisin ha ha! Tomorrow is 75miles from Ammonford to just past Monmouth! The start of the day is through the Brecon Mountains which will be a challenge ;-)
