After a good night's sleep in a nice B&B and a morning fry up we headed north into the lake district. The day was going reasonably well until we got to Kendal and then took on the SHAP HILL climb!!! It was a 7 mile climb to over 1400ft it took us 45 mins to it and about 2 hrs to recover.
Really missing Kath and the girls now and make sure i talk to them every day big kiss to you girls.
Tomorrow we enter Scotland, the home of the fried Mars Bar. Might get involved as I'm sick to death of these ruddy energy bars, protein shakes, recovery shakes etc etc.

Better day today after a really tough one yesterday, at least I could lift my head off the handlebars today, Paul is keeping me filled up with more drugs than Amy Winehouse takes on an average Friday night. I'm going to miss Issy's birthday party tomorrow - cycling 100miles into Scotland or Going to a High School musical party??? hmmm it's a tough one. Only joking miss you all loads.
