Day 5!

Day 5 Welsh Bicknor to Clun Mill YHA
We had a more relaxed day today-the planned mileage was less than most other days-our shortest day yet. We had a long stop at Costa in Ross-on-Wye which resulted in a toilet stop at a doctors surgery in a village not far away-we held our breath on the way through the waiting room to prevent any contamination...

It felt really hot today-we are drinking lots of water and stopped to refill water bottles at Luctonians Rugby Club. Despite the heat we've been right off our ice cream? Too many Jelly Babies probably we're a bit sugared out... Tomorrow we're going to swerve the sweets and take bananas and stuff-it's most unlike us to be off our food!

The Shropshire countryside is really beautiful and Clun Mill YHA is another awesome hostel-it's tiny and everybody here is a cyclist. 

Tomorrow we are off to Chester! After this we are a bit hazy so need to look more at our route as people keep asking us for details and we have to confess we aren't really sure. 

Planned mileage: 50
Actual mileage: 65
