Abingdon to Lesmahegow - 18.0 miles

Breakfast done I hit the road again for a long day following the cycle route to Lesmahegow. It was a lonely chilly walk a cross the bleak hills, the road spreading out before me and disappearing like a dot on the horizon. It takes a particular mindset to walk this type of road where cars or human company are in short supply. I found myself talking to sheep and ponies who at least made eye contact with me before taking fright and running off. Arriving at Lesmahegow I found a truckers cafe and had  some lunch.

On arrival at my B and B a warm bath soothed my feet and I reflected on my journey.
