Summary Post: England (First part)

I was reminded that I’d gotten behind in these summary posts, opps! I was struggling with how to split up the UK meaningfully.. Here’s my first bit of England.

The stats are a bit funny for this, as it includes 2 weeks in London.. It also includes a lot of expenditure on things I needed to replace on the bike or in my kit.

Here are the numbers!

• Days in country: 20
• Days riding: 7
• Kilometres ridden: 551km
• Running total (nearest 10km): 6150km
• Longest day: 129km (Southampton to London in the rain)
• Accom cost: ~60 GBP (Very cheap thanks to the generosity of friends letting me sleep in their living rooms in London)
• Other costs: ~980 GBP (Due to re-stocking on things like bike gear, 3x tyres (at £50 each) and buying nice clothes that actually fit me now that I’ve lost 20+kg!)
• Favourite food/drink: Flat white Coffees in antipodean cafes throughout London!
• 1 nights in a campground (an expensive one near Stonehenge),  3 nights in a hostel, 13 with friends and 2 Warmshowers.
• Favourite photo: Night-time at the Roman Baths
