99 miles and 4800 feet on 10 hours 30 mins. Long amd a bit slow but not exhausting. Spent a lot of the day on cycle routes. Confusing around Bristol as a lot of cycle routes which were not all that well marked. One that was very nice was the Strawberry Line from.Cheddar to.Congresbury. I then joined another cycle route that went over the main motorway bridge over the Avon very scarey being stuck between jugernauts and a 100 feet drop. Hot today at one stage the bike thermometer got to 82. Special thanks to Shirley Park who managed to track my progress and wait in a layby near Cheltenham to encourage me for the last 10 miles and was then rather unfairly hugged by a sweaty cyclist. A week off now before resuming the trip to Carlisle. 336 miles done, 700 or so to go.
