Had my last long ride yesterday before the off. I did the Buzzard Way, a route round E.Devon which was 87 miles long with 8,415ft of climbs. Two of the climbs are quite notorious because of their difficulty; at Awliscombe and Sidmouth. However it included some wonderful scenery. I didn't see any Buzzards by the way. My average speed was 10.2 mph, which was a bit slow. Only 11 days to go. I packed up my bike today for delivery to Parcelforce who will take it to Edinburgh. From there I will take it by train to JoG.
