Monday - Bristol to Bewdley

Hi Blog Readers (is there a collective noun for you?)
A belated blog about a very different day yesterday (Monday) with heavy rain for a period but some useful tail winds. Emily and Tim Shurlock were great hosts, feeding us well and washing clothes etc. Many thanks!
We came over the Severn Bridge (which is impressive so close up) then I came via Gloucester, Tewkesbury and Worcester. 84.5 miles at average of 13.5mph which was faster than average because of the helpful wind. I enjoyed the ride more the longer it went on surprisingly and a nice surprise was to be met just before home by my son Tim who had diverted en route home from a job in Glos to see me! Thanks Tim!
Chris came a different route through the Forest of Dean but we arrived at similar times and both enjoyed being in our own beds last night!
Thanks incidentally for your support and nice comments, they have been very helpful and have proved a blog works! Keep them coming!
