Having been woken from what wasn't a particularly great sleep anyway by Emma leaving at 5:30 to get on the road with enough time for us to catch her and finish together, I thought I'd write half of today's post before we set off in case I run out of time/effort this evening.
With only 51 miles of rolling Scottish coastline left today, even the prospect of rain and wind doesn't seem that bad (I may take that back later) and I thought to put everything a little into perspective I would write a list of the things I will and won't miss tomorrow once it's all over:
Things I Won't Miss:
-Danny's 6am alarm that he doesn't even get out of bed for
-The various noises people make in the night
-Clothes that all slightly smell
-Scottish "bike paths"
-Midgies
Things I Will Miss:
-Being on my bike every day
-The scenery (except maybe Preston and Carlisle)
-The MS societies that we met
-Not having to do anything except ride
-Having seven or so meals a day
-Being blissfully unaware of the outside world (Did someone say we have a new PM...)
-The banter
-The incredible people I've ridden with for two weeks
On balance, I think it's fair to say I'm gonna really miss this experience, and I have already volunteered to help with next year's trips.
After a breakfast of way to much delicious left over soup, it's time to hit the road and BASH THIS OUT!
