Wet Weather Gear Packed

Our kit is all packed and in a few hours we'll be starting the journey to Cornwall. Cycling conditions are perfect at the moment, 23 mph winds and the rain is easing off to a steady downpour!

A part of our training strategy has been to go out in all conditions (a tip we picked up from another blog) resulting in what looked like very odd behavior in the months before we admitted what we were actually up to. Come to think of it, it was probably still odd once people knew we were planning to ride LeJog.

Looks we'll have rain for at least the first few days of our trip.

On the plus side Debbie has made us a mountain of flapjack which is all packed up in my rucksack and panniers ready to fuel us over the Cornish Hills and Dartmoor.

No cycling yesterday but I did test the flapjack (well you have to do some training). I can confirm it is gooey, sticky and delicious.
