The day started (5am) cool and misty, then the sun got to work, and by the time it came to walk uphill, it was too hot ! That didn’t stop them, and the roads and hills just got steeper and steeper as the day wore on. Throw in a pub or two who couldn’t or wouldn’t serve Charlie and his mate Tom Idle, then a beckoning notice of cider for sale only to find it ‘out of hours’, all add to their frustration. But it didn’t stop Charlie marking the day down as A1, all 90 miles of it.
