    Oh, you will.

    A close mucker of Withnall's is meeting me near Stoke - carnage may ensure.

    The oatcake debacle will start.

    At least Slaps will, hopefully, eat a proper Scottish oatcake. Not a pancake with lumps in that calls itself an oatcake.

    Little to report today.

    Trip high/lowlights were a traverse of both the Mendips and Bristol city centre in the rain. And of course crossing the Severn Bridge while getting battered by vehement crosswind - really unpleasant stuff. I was looking forward to snapping some pics en route, especially of the bridge (as it's something of a landmark of the trip - finally out of the southwest!) but I could barely see for the rain.

    I rolled into Wales expecting to be greeted with some regional close-harmony hits - but all I got was this. News of Ryan Reeves's sex life...



    Three miles later I arrived in Chepstow with a dogged resolve that I would not part with one more pedal stroke in this hideous weather...



    I checked into the first accommodation I happened upon, and I ate, and ate, and ate... I'm always fucking hungry. And thirsty. Beer time!

    You live in fooking Ennerland. WTF do you expect? A pom crying about the rain, whatever next? A Thai moaning about their some tam being too hot?


    Least ya coulda taken a picture in the bridge, I'm pretty sure there was no sign saying no photo taking in the rain. Piss poor day report. Expect a red.

    Keep cranking those peddles round looks wet today but dry for a few days after that.
    Are you planing to have a rest day or is it full on masochism for the entire journey.

    I'm hoping to get Ryan's mum's number....

    Nice looking meal, Slap. I'm surprised though, I would have thought you'd have known about it being somewhat damp in England.

    Don't worry about this lot, Slaps - you're doing well while they're all relaxing in their comfy beds, hopping on the motorcy for a 5 min ride to the soapy massage happy ending parlour...

    Over the bridge now, you've broken the back of the journey.

    Now, a bit of advice, in toilets like the one Ryan and his mate's frequent, if you see a hole in the wall, don't: 1) stick anything through it, or 2) touch anything that comes through the hole from the other cubicle...
