DAY 1
On a bright, fairly sunny, morning the journey began leaving London's Stratford High Street and heading towards Harwich - eventually.
Jacqui's speedometer tells all:

Once out of London, it's surprising how green and pleasant our country is
Mel in the morning |
The girls headed up country, keeping right of Harlow and to a place near Moreton for the first water (cider) stop of the day. Fully refreshed, they set off again along some beautiful countryside, passing Finchingfield
A nice, downhill ride - what beautiful scenery - and the only way most definitely is Essex.
And so to lunch at a place close to Wethersfield before heading off to a lovely spot called Nayland for the second water (cider) stop before the final leg of the journey into Harwich.
Mel and friends
Time for a quick energy boost before hitting the coast
Approaching Harwich Harbour, it all looks a bit murky
And so they wait, looking forward to a hearty meal and a good night's sleep
And here's the stats:
Day 1
Miles = 92.5*
Time cycling = 6hrs 58mins
*I forgot to turn my speedo on for the first two miles!
