i didn't manage all of it 🙁 did from Winchester to Lewes. I had to bail partly because I would have missed the last train back and partly because I was tired and feeling dizzy. I'm pleased though, it's further than I got last time, so I am improving. Thanks to Lisa and Jim and Tom for good company along the way. Enjoy your pint!

Hey Karin - well done you! That must have been so tough with the ridiculously high temperature today. You couldn't have had many miles left though?

Hope you're not feeling too beat up and enjoying a well-earned beverage. 🙂

Bum ok, despite a not-quite-gone-yet saddle sore. Lots of Germolene cream! My hands hurt at the end and I took some painkillers on the train to help with the ride home from the station. I felt pretty good the next day too, just slightly stiff but no headache. I'm going to try again soon.

Singletrackmind - yes, I think 3/4 of the way.

Nice work Karin. That's a really good attempt! Plus, if you did better than last time, that's the main thing, eh? I'm sure if you try again with lower temps you'll do even better... I'm rubbish in the heat! (Not that I'm very good anyway of course!) Well done again. MM
