After a slightly better night's sleep and the welcome sight of both Big Jim and the sunsine we set off on a 110 mile day at pretty fast pace before we knew it we had completed 40 miles in 2hrs 15 mins, two main reasons for this, the roads were flat in comparison to what we cycled the two days before and Big Jim actually knows how to cylce compared to us amatures and as such rode out front for 90% of the day ( The guy is a machine and a legend ) Thanks James.
Lunch stop just outside Bristol and the every reliable Toby and Harriet were waiting with the caravan and food prepared. After Lunch we only had 50 miles left to the campsite and off we set along the A38 only slight change from the morning's formation was when Big Jim slipped to the back for a 5 min rest but after a few words he realised the error of his ways and normal service was resumed and he got out front and dragged us home. Everyone feeling generally ok other that what is to be expected, looking forward to Chris joining us tomorrow and a slightly slower pace.

At least the big read sweety heads were due to the weather and not us blowing up. Really enjoyed today got a free lesson in how to ride a bike.
