From Bardney to Kirmington
The final "full day" of cycling began with much intrepidation - after 3 days of cycling, would we really be able to manage the Lincolnshire wolds with all the weight on our bikes? Would it all prove to be too much for too not so well trained cyclists, who can't claim to be exactly athletes? Also, the vino that we were consuming on the previous night was deceptively lethal....
We set off pretty early and built up a good pace, arriving at the bottom of the hills feeling fresh and ready. Although the climb was a bit of killer, the route down the other side was worth it - the mix of the remaining endorphins and adrenaline triggered by the rapid descent through beautiful countryside was overpowering...
We ended up arriving at our destination in Kirmington (near to Humber "International" Airport - ha ha!)well ahead of schedule...
By far the most fulfilling day since starting out.
