Hi all,
here a few updates on the cycling route:
Tuesday night we will be staying in West Middlewick Farm http://westmiddlewick.co.uk/location/
this is a few miles west of Tiverton - 19miles from Tiverton Parkway station so plan plenty of time if you are aiming to get there on Tuesday night or Wednesday morning. I recon with the hill it will take me about 2 hours from the station to the campsite. Holly and I will be leaving Tiverton Parkway at 4pm.

If you are joining us on Wednesday morning please let me know, we are aiming to set off at 11am from the campsite.

This means the ride on Wednesday is much shorter... this link shows the approximate route for the day https://www.google.co.uk/…/data=!3m1!4b ... 13!1m5!1m1!…
Because we are staying in South Zeal on Wednesday night we will have a few miles more on Thursday but it will be a very pretty route following a the edge of dartmoor partly on proper cycle paths https://www.google.co.uk/…/data=!3m1!4b ... 13!1m5!1m1!…

Thursday stays as planned.

Hi Here's a send off for a fantastically cycladelic ride to Cornwall. May the music be with you.

If you had an FO flag for last year's cycle tour and have a garden cane and cable ties hanging about in your life, now's the time to dig them out. Lisa has four more flags if you feel like sporting one through the west country (and please keep them safe this time!) See you there to hear all about it. x
