Early start, aiming to leave 0815, cycle to Central station Glasgow and meet Arthur.
I seem to be organised today, final thing is to start this blog.
Panniers are strangely light, it makes a big difference not having a tent and sleeping bag as for the Lejog trip.
Just looked out and forecast is right for once, sadly, its raining. However it means I do get to wear my new jacket :-)
Uneventful trip apart from changeover driver did not get to Wolverhampton in time and another was found. 12 min delay.
Now at St Pancras.
(Arthurs Finger! LoL)
Fast train to Strood then find the road to the center. The High St is one way in each direction from the middle so we walk the first 100m and cycle the other. Some UKIP party members fresh from a meeting are making their way across the street, getting ready for the forthcoming byelection.
The roads are busy and cars zoom past closely, the roads are not too wide. We get to the hostel and meet Calum, bikes put in the shed and a cup of tea put on. The holiday begins.
13 miles for me today.
