Day 30 - unscheduled rest day

We were meant to ride 115km today along the hard shoulder of a straight main road. There is going to be rain on and off and a headwind with no notable scenery. It sounds dull so we decide not to do it and take the van direct to the hotel. We expected that loads of others would do the same but actually only one other skipped the whole thing and a few only rode part of it. Those that road confirmed it was a pretty rubbish ride so we were glad of the decision. It also gave us time to change our road tyres back to gravel for the remaining 2 days that will be virtually all off road.Meer informatie
