May 14th Day 1

Leisurely drive down in 4.5 hours from Solihull to Sennen Bay. Eating Flapjacks kindly donated by Wedges Bakery all the way down, Tony excelled and was crowned as flapjack King. Bachelor evaded the flapjack and instead was furiously reading “long distance cycling” desperately trying to gain some advantage. Staying at the Old Success Inn great location next to the beach and only 2miles from Lands End itself, Omar managing to bag the 'presedential' suite.

Richard and Sanj, very proudly showed off their newly shaved, and now very itchy legs. Sanj sporting his pole dancer bandy legs they are a hit with the boys and Batchelor sported limbs that can only be described as closely resembling corned beef.

Arrived at Lands End to be met by hordes of female admirers - NOT. Signed in at the Land End hotel to register the event. Simon conveniently managed not to sign in Tony . True to British Tourism form it costs £9.50 to have your photo taken next to the wooden sign.

Leisurely pace, Omar actually leading for the 1st time. We also had our 1st puncture with Simon falling victim after only 10 miles. Finished 1st the first run after 30 miles in Redruth, it was a good ride that has effectively reduced the next days cycling to 65 miles.
