John O'Groats to Land's End - 1989
August 26th - Bath to Holford (50 miles)

This was the longest and hardest ride - nothing but slog into 
the headwind all day. The first 15 miles, over the Mendip Hills 
in pouring rain, got us to Glastonbury for lunch, all thought of 
visiting Cheddar Gorge washed away. Then it got worse - 
along the A39 full of Bank Holiday traffic. After the relief of a 
stop in Bridgwater for a snack, we faced the last 13 miles into 
a north-west gale, arriving at the hostel just in time for supper
