A bit of a nothing day today. Weather has been cold and wet and the countryside we have travelled through has been flat and featureless. Towns fairly ordinary. Lots of trucks on the road today. Mostly heading north in the ... Read more >

Mizzle, the misty Cornish drizzle that we woke up to this morning. Not enough to keep us off the bikes. In fact perfect biking weather.
The trip to Padstow along the Camel trail was only 10-11 miles return. Lindsay on a trike, ... Read more >

For the next couple of nights we're staying in Bodmin with Lindsay an English friend of Janice's. The towns, we passed through to get here, don't have the same tidy/quaint appeal as in Ireland. The country landscape is still rolling hills ... Read more >
