Shortly after arriving with our host Teressa in Hereford, as a trained massues she treated our aching bodies to a wonderful massage!
This morning we again had an amazing breakfast and received another contribution to our fundraising total from a man who was also staying at the B&B...thank you!
We started our journey with a lovely little ride through Hereford and stopped to take a few snaps before pushing on into Wales!
After a spot of lunch just outside Monmouth we then got to experience the Seven Bridges cycle path heading into England, which was all very exciting! Becky spent most of the trip over the bridge worrying that I was going to fall in even though I was definitely in control!!
The afternoon passed without any dramas , just the occasional steep incline to get over, followed by enjoyable descents where we hit speeds of nearly 30 mph (sorry mums)!!
We slowly rolled into Wells at about 8 o'clock, we have got used to the long days now and have accepted that we never have much time to explore the places we are staying! We found an ASK for dinner where we were amazed by the interest people showed in our challenge (probably because we stood out like sore thumbs in our dirty cycling kit)! The staff treated us brilliantly and the manger showed his support by giving us our main meals free!!
We left ASK on a bit of a high before descending into the Beltane b and b for the night! The house was beautiful and we were made to feel very welcome!!
After watching a tense penalty shoot out between Guana and Uraguay we called it a day...
Highlights of the day:
1. The feeling of our legs after our massages
2. The donation from the kind man in Hereford
3. Crossing the Severn bridge
4. Free dinner at ASK
5. Wells cathedral with a backdrop of red sky
6.Seeing Chepstow race course
