Day 1 Lands End to Launceston

What a day! 80 miles in 5 and a half hours at an average of 15mph. Cornwall would be size of Australia if they ironed it flat! What a blast! My thanks to all who left best wishes - emails, texts and comments on this blog. You will not believe what a difference they make - keep them coming! Bike and rider (inc knees and bum) doing well. Presently devouring fish and chips and dehydration in a pub in Launceston. Gotta go now, sleep, then another big day to Bridgewater tomorrow. Cheers John.
