Leaving Ross after a good nights sleep, no snoring last night. We left the hostel and had a good ride into Ross. Updated the blog in Library, bought some ear plugs for the next snorers in the dorm and pedalled like madmen to our next stop. What well toned athletes we're turning into!
We decided today to look for A and B roads to get to Clun in good time. Chose a nice a road which took us all the way to Hereford which was worth visiting for lunch, pasta and cake.... no beer.
Could easily have had a couple of hours nap here, but a 10 mins stop while the pasta digested was all we took. On to Leominister avoiding the town following the less hilly route to Clun, great ride and stopped for tea and more cake at a farmers house where they had turned their conservatory into a cafe! Only problem encountered was a rogue dormouse which nearly forced James to fall off his bike in a swerve to avoid it!

Took a photo of us both just outside Clun either I'm shrinking or mikes just got a huge head!!
Long ride into Clun, self catered some pizza and salad and then made our way into the village for a couple of beers in a pub where Mike thrashed me at pool 4-0, of course I could say that I let him win to motivate him for next days ride, but the truth is Mike just excels in this sport.
