Day 5 - One third crops up

Monmouth - Shrewsbury

Yet again I finished at a pub at the bottom of a large hill yesterday so the first five miles pointed up! This was however the only major hill of the day with only rolling ups and downs for the rest of the day.

The major highlight of the day was passing the 333 mile mark, suitably celebrated with a pint of Stella ( they will be making a donation soon ). The day was then finished with almost 10 miles of un interrupted down hill, just a couple of small ups to remind me what the peddals are for.

Stats for the day
Miles 72
Average speed 12 mph
Max speed 42 mph - impressive with full luggage
Pubs visited 2

Pictures to follow
