good company to be replaced by more A roads...
Breakfast was that of champions - porridge and bacon sandwiches, along with
smoothies, berocca and tea. Fully fuelled we headed off to Preston along
the A6 and managed quite a pace getting to the city entrance in little over
an hour (it's 18 miles from Lancaster) - but then spent the best part of an
hour getting through the city.
Along the way we were passed by a couple more end to enders who started the
same day as us, but expected to finish in 3 days.
With a bit of a tail wind (I'd forgotted what it feels like), we pushed on
through wigan and into warrington - where we had planned to have lunch,
trouble is, it was only 11:45.
We decided to get to knutsford before having lunch but 1 mile away Dave got
another puncture, so we had to take another 15 minutes to sort that out.
It's a mere 25 miles from here to stoke, which we should get out of the way
in. Few hours this afternoon, allowing us a sit down and pint in the sun
this evening.

Glad you enjoyed the hospitality, it's the least we could do (well, Vicky really), seeing as what you are putting yourselves through.... keep it up....
