Oakhampton to Newquay 66 miles

What can I say? Second to last day, can't believe it.

I loved the ride over bodmin and the mad sheep. I wasn't surprised when the fog came down but was rather disapointed when it didn't lift. I think it helped with the hills though, you can't worry about a climb that you can't see and the couple of times I managed to see the gradient I was impressed by my fitness. Who knew?

By the time I got to Newquay I had imagined that I would be drenched in sunlight, tanned and relaxed, a quick hop to Land's End on the last day. Maybe even a dip in the sea. Obviously the weather didn't agree and there was very little sea to see.
