Day 2 Lands End Ride

We awoke to sunny weather and set off at around 10 am after a full English. 

Our route was through Hungerford then SW to Burbage on a quite pleasant but undulating A road through the N Wilts downs.

There were some nice villages with thatched cottages, including a two storey one in Rushall raised on stones, that I later found was out built of straw. 

We bought some sandwiches and ate them 

on a bench, then stopped off at a pub for a 

drink.

There seems to be a pattern developing here! 

Although today I only had orange juice. 

We cycled on along the northern slopes of the 

Salisbury Plain to Frome on a quite hilly B road.

 It warmed up quite a bit too.

We saw 3 white horses on hills, the best of which

was at Westbury.

Arrived at hotel at around 4:30. Slightly fewer 

miles than yesterday but more hills. We feel 

like we've earned our dinner today.

Day's mileage 53. Average speed 10 mph
