Day Two

Launceston to Stephen and Judy Penny's in Curry Mallet

TTT=3.5 (Ollie half fell into a bush after losing his balance going up a ridiculously steep hill - oops!)
We set off in our wet weather gear with the prospect of 70+ miles of cycling in the pouring rain - 'severe weather warnings' everywhere! Fortunately after half an hour or so (and a dozen changes of clothes) the rain clouds abated.

We covered the 72 miles in good time and feeling pretty good (almost 20 miles less than yesterday it felt short!) without incident, although Emily did get chased out of a field by a horse while she was 'turning her bike around'...

Received a very warm welcome at the Penny's in Curry Mallet, they fed us, washed our clothes and even let us swim in their heated pool - we can guarantee noone has ever appreciated a dip in that pool so much!! Massive thanks to you both.
