Say Cheese!

Cheddar at last. Thought I'd never make it tonight. The weather has been awful. It started out so well with patches of blue and no wind but about 20 miles North of Lands End and that all changed. The skies opened. It's been hard going in terrible conditions at times but it's all good character building stuff. This is proving to be a bit harder than I thought it would be but the weather is probably playing a large part in that. I'm now behind schedule but I think I should be able to catch up. 10 out of 10 to N3rdy for meeting me here. I didn't expect to see him given the rain (knowing how he protects his pride and joy - his bike I mean) but it was great to see a friendly face. He was too camera-shy to be photographed but consented to his bike being pictured. His is the clean one. Mine is starting to look like something out of Mad Max! Today's most interesting moment was when I tried to find a petrol station using my Sat Nav. It took me down some gravel strewn single track road with weeds and grass growing through the surface. Real fun on a bike - not. Then I got to where this petrol station was supposed to be. Guess what. Not a sign of it. Ended up having to go back along that same road. Then ended up filling up at a huge petrol station that Mr TomTom says doesn't exist! Yes I said it. Gadgets aren't always perfect. (This is actually last night's Blog but it wouldn't let me send it).
