Morning all! This was taken this morning but then the battery went! This picture absolutely creases me! Jonny bought this fruit/veg last night! N I'm gonna be honest, i don't have a clue what it is! But jonny said "take the skin of these and they are absolutely beaut!"
Andy then says: "is it a papaya?" jonny then says: "yeh that's the one, the well nice, and it was only 45p can u believe it?"
Andy then says: "are u sure it's not avocado? The thing u have with salads?!?!?"
Jonny says: "nah. I don't like avocado, there horrible!"
This morning we here a crunch as jonny bites into it, jonny: "errrggghhh, really quietly mumbled" a mystery object then comes flying out jonny's tent!
Check out our nice little campsite as we roughed it/poshed it on the village green Whitchurch! we were actually 20 miles short of Shrewsbury but yesterday it was my turn again to have a total mare!
Firstly we never left Preston until 5.30pm! Jonny's brand new bike needed a bit more tweaking, more than a few hundred very well spent, he was like Chris hoy this morning steaming up the hill!
Just as were about to leave Preston, well actually chorley where jonny got his bike, I thought I would text my mate Si as only last week he got married (great do by the way) in shropshire and I wondered if he was anywhere near Shrewsbury so we could stop with him or something! Then suprisingly (like everything on this trip) he said, nah mate, I'm in chorley! So we met up for a chat and obviously delayed setting off even more!
Right back to my mare, so we finally get
On our way and then my bike and wheel starts making a really weird noise, we stop have a look and I have 2 spokes flying around totally come out and about 3 loose ones!, and my wheel is really really buckled! So I wobbled on and then andy had another puncture this time in his front wheel, initially he got some kind of egg coming out of his pinctureless/crap tyres so we all looked closely at it, stopped and then BANG the loudest thing I've ever heard, sooooooooo funny! Then jonny's new bike got a puncture!
So there is ur reasons we stopped short, basically me and andy were desperate to get to a bike shop, obviously non would be open till around 9 we had so we thought we may aswell do 20 miles in the light rather than the dark, so we pushed on until we found somewhere nice to camp, and Whitchurch was the place!
Andy is now getting a new front tyre to match his spanking new continental on the back, and also some run tape to prevent any punctures! So after today there should be no more reasons for any mares! Apart from the fact were sat at table no. 13 in wetherspoons! Were just eating a full English while our bikes are being fixed! Yes that is half a pint, and it's jonny's, he said it's healthy it's got lemon in!
Today = Shrewsbury - Bristol 100miles on top of the 20 we've done this morning!
