Day 6 - Shrewsbury to Wigan.
Today, I had an important appointment to keep at midday - I was meeting my parents and they were to join me for a short distance as mother had raised a considerable amount towards the overall total, on the condition that she joins me for part of the ride. I met my parents 5 miles south of where they live and we rode to a nearby pub for lunch.
After lunch, I arranged to be collected further north with the promise of dinner. However, freed from the additional weight of luggage (unfortunately Terry Pratchett's luggage has not been invented yet!) I was flying and passed the meeting point with an hour to spare. This necessitated arranging a new meeting point with the added complication of a mobile phone left at home!!!
Stats for the day:
Miles 75
Average Speed 13 mph
Max speed 33 mph
Pubs frequented 2 - I am now currently working my way through a bottle of my parents' bottle of Bowmore whisky.
Pictures to follow.

Do you have to send blood samples to Paris every day to check whether you've been doping with performance enhancing Stella??
Where are the updates?! Are you taking day long breaks or have passed out from all the Stella?!
