Thursday 9 June 2011

Day 10- Hereford to Churchill ( South of Bristol airport) 78 miles

Today was lovely weather , sunny mostly but with a really fierce south westerly.
Had a fantastic ride down to Monmouth with beautiful views and lots of rolling hills. Lucy was flying today and Paul had to time trial to catch her on the hills. Past the resplendent Tintern Abbey while Pat and the boys went off to a Maze, crazy golf and buttelfly zoo. ( Ewan loved the butterflies, Ellis the maze and golf!)They also saw a Peregrine falcon on the cliffs by Symonds Yat.
Back to the dynamic duo as they battled against the wind over the severn bridge and around the chaos and horror that is Avonmouth. Ended up cycling towards the Mendips..... more hills and rest for the night at the village of Churchill. Laura came out from Brissssssol to have a drink with us in the evening and give words of encouragement. "You'll be all right my lover"
