South Downs Way 100

Thursday 21 May 2009

Almost no off-road

However the 250 yards across this field were the filthiest ever. The pnik
divining skills were in operation, only 1 mile offroad and James' tyre grew
to almost 3 times its normal size and he was endanger from the farmer for
stealing his mud.

Apart from the comedy mud, today was the easiest so far, we were only riding
for 4 hours in total (including lunch stop). We were at the overnight stop
just after 2pm. So we've had a relaxing afternoon in Osmotherley preparing
for the moors tomorrow. In response to the experiences of the last few days,
tomorrow will deviate slightly from the original plan, in that once we get
off the moors we are going to stay down. We have proven several times this
week, that the ground is saturated and even with the forecast better weather
it will still be mushy underfoot.

It was nice to watch the thunderstorm from the pub this afternoon.

Sorry yesterday got jumbled up, but I'm sure you worked it out.
