The plan for the next 3 days is to do the Devon coast to coast from Ilfracombe to Plymouth. Overnights are East Yarde near Great Torrington and in Tavistock. Much of it is off road on disused railways and looks like a fun ride. Weather looks to be the greatest challenge with first gales of autumn arriving on Sunday.
Chris Dunne is one of the gimps again and is raising money for charity https://mydonate.bt.com/fundraisers/devonc2c
Lots of epic travel today to get to Plymouth ahead of cross Devon bike taxi tomorrow. One car from the end of the llyn peninsula in wales with some amazing welsh roads on the way. Another from Ulverston yesterday via an overnight in Leicester and then Horsham and Portsmouth today. By this point we should be hitting downtown Plymouth but the car from Leicester only made it as far as Honiton.
All sorts of recovery options up in the air right now and hopefully tomorrow we'll have a car in a garage awaiting a new clutch early doors meaning we do actually get to start the ride this time (6 months ago Chris broke his leg causing postponement...at least its only his car this time)
