I've got to go 85 miles today. A bit apprehensive after yesterday and not sure how legs will cope. In fact went the first 55 miles into strong headwind and felt 100 times better than yesterday. Looking forward to leaving citties behind and heading out towards the Lakes tomorrow.

Thank you to those of my colleagues who have 'dressed down' for me today. I hope you all have a good bank holiday weekend (although I hear serious rain is forecast).

Arrived in Preston having done 90 miles and feel fine.
