Day 4 Newland to Shrewsbury
A little hilly at first out from Monmouth but became a faster flowing ride to Hereford.Stopped in Monmouth to see historic bridge, then rolled on over gentle hills to Hereford. Visit to impressive cathedral with magnificent strong columns reaching upward. A quality break at Andy's café set us up for the rolling miles to Church Stretton. We took the back road through the village as a break from the A49,and paused for tea and a chat.Then powered in for the last 12 miles to Shrewsbury. Called at the supermarket to buy food for tea, then over to Margaret's, Mark's elderly mother, to stay over.

Hi
ReplyDeleteit's very interesting to hear about your food and ldoging (most important) but we 'd quite like to hear more about the actual biking, i.e. how strenuous is each bit, are you having a day off, how many miles do you do each day, when you finally say " why are we doing this??".
With very best wishes for success from Sue and Steve in München!
