Cycle Ride Day 2

Well it was quite an eventful night for the cyclists. They camped through cold, windy and stormy conditions - not sure how much sleep was had by any of them. Paul was also feeling quite unwell during the night and thought the e-coli had made a recurrence although he is better today. Paul would like to say a special thanks to all at the Colliford Lake Campsite on Bodmin Moor where they stayed last night. They helped him fix his pannier rack on his bike which had broken, and generally were very hospitable.
The cyclists set off this morning between showers, but it wasn't long before they had their bike poncho's on and battling through the hail and rain!! Thankfully the strong wind was behind them. At the end of day 2 they are about 20 miles ahead of schedule, staying tonight in a farm house B & B at Crediton, near Tiveton in Devon.
All are feeling well and looking forward to the farmer taking them in to Crediton tonight!
