Day 2. After a nightclub below the hotel keeping us awake until 3am, we woke bleary eyed and set off for a full day of cycling. Rhys and I cycled at record speeds of 26mph on what felt like a motorway while Ross went off to pick up supplies and had a delightful day visiting a waterfall and a castle. We had a 'lovely' experience when we had to stop for a wee at the side of the road in what can only be described as a tip, only to find 5 mins up the road were the services..arghhh!!
After our initial 50 miles we then watched a hurling (aka curling as Rhys kept calling it) match which can only be described as an aggressive mulch of hockey/football/rugby and lacrosse. Very exciting match, especially when the Irish guy behind us kept shouting 'JEEEZUS'!!
We then set off at a steady pace to our final destination, a luxury B&B with its very own castle (great choice MOOF!)
Joe had his op on his collar bone today too so we all have our fingers crossed that he'll be able to come and join us on Tuesday.
