I woke at 4.30, after a about 10 mibs of trying to get back to sellp and failing I started to get up. I had a little fruit for breakfast. And was on the road just after 6am  I had to lift my bike over the front gate.

I stopped for coffee and a croissant at a petrol stop at about 7.

At first the road was left turn right turn just s series of turns and I was getting a bit bored. But eventually I got onto a long straight road, not particularly less boring.

Of the few hills one of them I was down in tge drops, very unusual for me. This reduces my ahead vision and i missed a massive pothole. Luckily I rose up and jumped to clear the hole and much to my surprise I landed safely on the other side.

I eventually stopped in a town more coffee and cake. I got some fruit and went into a bakery and bought some of these nuggets of gorgeousness. Packets of pastry wrapped round sliced olives, oh heaven.

Then I jumped back on and span the legs. The road was being eaten up. I knew my campsite was just after I meet the coast again. My Garmin was showing just the map and I started to feel a little tired, checked Komoot and I only had 10kms left I span that inno time. Of course the campsite I had earmarked was closed, but 5kms down the road was another one.

The road is due to go up a bit tomorrow.  So I found a washing machine to properly wash my clothes. I’m not particularly good at hand washing.

Once again feel free to follow my dots. https://share.garmin.com/acoupleofdaysrideoutta
