First leg...

Set off from Newman's Estate Agents, Rugby, at 9:30 after photo's and catching up with James (Golding).

8 bikes set off to cover the first 15 miles with me, many thanks to the 8 who joined me. I never realised how hilly it was from the Midlands to London, I thought they would never end! First day I covered 89 miles in total for just over 6 hours including the break.

My legs are now officially dead, but after I stuff my face with pasta and a glass of wine, i'm sure they will be fine for the next leg tomorrow - London to Dover.

Thanks for all the messages of support, I will be adding on shortly the photos of yesterday.
