Day 6 Clun to Tarporley

Early start for all the LeJoggers this morning as there was some concern over the mileage of todays route (80 ish). Early breakfast at the White Horse followed by some undulating countryside along the Shropshire lanes.


Good progress made into Shrewsbury, our legs appreciating the gentle gradients. Stopped off at a bike shop to try and get some more brake pads only to find the Royal Navy LeJog team had bought the shop out an hour earlier!






Pressed on through the country lanes helped by a south westerly wind and the thoughts of some home cooking. Made our detour from the tour route in Waverton and headed for Tarporley High Street.


Managed a quick stop at the Rising Sun for some refreshments before coming home to meet the family including the new member Maisie the Dog! 




Came home to a surprise party which was great from a home cooking point of view and good to see some friends. Not so sure a late night will be good for our extended journey to Slaidburn tomorrow but hopefully our legs will get us there.
