Day 1 - We made it

Turns out there were a lot more rotten hills after Pucklechurch, which we found out later is the home to a prison for all sorts of sex offenders, eek. Not many highlights in the afternoon other than having to run the bike across a 70mph A road, and a cyclist asking directions as he had no map, turns out he was about 10 miles off his route. Eventually reached Carriers Farm just outside Sherston and the owners, Brenda & Chris (see photo) were lovely and welcoming and made us tea as we sat and chatted. Brenda has even offered to make us sandwiches for tomorrow from their farm produce. As if that wasnt enough they are even giving us some money towards our charities! Had yummy dinner and Steve sampled a couple of local bitters. Ready for day 2.
