Hello
I looked around Ross-on-Wye last night and discovered what a nice sleepy little village it is. There are a lot of eighteenth-century buildings around and on a lovely evening like yesterday what better than to have a meal and a drink by the river Wye.

I left the Radcliffe guesthouse this morning after a great nights stay about 9am. There was a light haze hanging over the hills in the distance. I cycled of towards Hereford, I was making great time or so, I thought I took a wrong turn up a bloody steep hill and added about 3 miles to my trip. Great idea, how I've got this far is a miracle. Anyway I got back on track and headed out to Leominster across the rolling countryside. All the farms seem to be harvesting there crops, a sure sign of another couple of day’s good weather. I went through Ludlow but didn’t manage to see the castle. Then it was on to Telford across the Corve dale. The roads were all quiet lanes with hardly any signposts but I made it to my destination o.k. Amazing. One thing that did make me laugh today was when 2 cycles asked me for directions, me the man who could not find his way out of the lands end car park!. Anyway I got to Telford after a hot day on the road.

See you tomorrow
