The fog was thick, too thick to cycle in. We waited until 12pm for it to clear before heading off. We have 30km to do today but we know we will be slow. It is uphill and we haven’t been on our bikes for far too long.

Rowan is struggling. He hasn’t had much sleep and is not 100%. We carry on and try to push ourselves a bit. My lowest gear is making the chain rub against the tyre. I avoid the lowest gear for most of the day. This meant I had to walk parts.

Noisy nosey moos

Rowan picked up a new mascot. This is Timothy. He now rides shotgun

When we got to camp it was before 4pm but of course it started raining. We hurried to get pitched and once we were done the rain stopped. There is a tiny stream that we walked down to for a quick wash. By the time Rowan cooked dinner we were eating in near dark. Now all washed up and in bed. Hopefully Rowan gets some sleep tonight.
