Day 3 Hereford to Preston 156 miles
Bobby left Hereford really early in search of Billsborrow. He left at 5 . 30 am and The kids and Val left at about 10 o'clock again. Bobby really hammered on and covered 120 miles. The support crew caught up with him between St Helens and Preston again we stopped for about 3 hours and Adam decided to join him for the afternoon. The 2 of them covered 36 miles and came to Billsborrow meanwhile Val and Craig went to Morrisons to stock up on food and then popped into Penwortham to visit Karen (cousin) Keith & Stewart. It was a flying visit as when Val phoned Bobby from Morrison's carpark his phone started ringing in the motorhome. OH DEAR!!! Bobby borrowed a mobile from a stranger and let us know he & Adam were waiting at a pub in Billsborrow. Craig & Val headed to the campsite aided by Sat Nav thinking they would go through Bilsborrow en route. They arrived at the campsite first checked in then headed back to find the cyclists. Tired, angry & CRABBIT they were picked up and driven to the campsite. They calmed down after a hot shower and food. An early night for all!!
