Rain and A-roads are the words to sum up today. A-roads are not my favourite part of the journey, but a necessary evil.

A few miles into the journey Dave got the first puncture of the trip, but some slick teamwork got us back on the road in no time.

I really struggled this morning - my bottom is SO sore! So when we got to Wolverhampton I called into a cycle shop and asked for the "comfiest saddle you sell". The shopkeeper came up trumps! A spring-loaded gel saddle - my bum has been saved :)

After lunch and another comedy Dave fall, we headed to Dave's work (!?) and then slogged along his training route to home sweet home...
