Start with a huge thank you to all who kindly donated at the Coey last night and all those who have donated from the H. Middleton CC.
Set off with our fresh driver onboard, welcome Ste B and a great first day in support.
We arrived at the shop at 8.20am and people came to see us off. The club all started arriving and I think the numbers were round 40 riders. Kev and I were asked to lead out towards Scorton and although Kev should have sat on wheels, he st the pace with Matt on the front. Got to th cafe in no time, think it was less than two hours.
Big feed of jacket potatoes and coffee. Ste caught us up and the three of us headed out towards Lancaster, Carnforth and Milnthorpe, all on the A6, which wasn't too bad.
The heavens opened aroun Levens and we got a bit of a soaking alongside Windermere. Sat here in Nab Cottage alongside Rydal Water, great place and Tim has welcomed us.
Just off for food into Ambleside and to meet up with Little Ali.
Thanks again to all the club for your support and it's give us a huge boost for he journey into Scotland.
If any of the Queens Park children are following, we rode past school last night at 7pm. Looked out for you, but ddn't spot anyone at that time. Keep following and the miles are clocking up for our competition.
It was so nice seeing you boys cycling off with so many of your pals from the cycling club and friends and family giving such support.A little sad though without Lee but Eze comes first and Lee will be back wth you if at all possible.Hope you all have a very restful night Carla would be so proud of you all.
