The Longest Day


An early start at 07.30 hrs from Bodmin saw us get on the A30 and miss the manic, morning dash that is the morning rush hour.


The early good work was nearly spoilt by a Boring, Middle-aged, W****r, yes you guessed it the good old BMW driver. In typical BMW style he decided to under-cut the tandem, after running out of slip road.


Not to be deterred by this, James (Flying Scotsman) & JJ (Brighton's Bitch) decided to put the pedals to the metal and clocked up a new event record of 45mph, only for the BMW driver to change gear and get away.


On entering Exeter the locals decided to show us a few customs, including lighting up an old dog-end found on the street and modeling the latest candy floss hair style, even the lookie-likie Yoko Ono cycled past singing her latest song Imagine. This evening we were all treated to a tour of the highlights of Exeter by Nick, hence to say it took all of 2 minutes. Luckily we came across a pub and had a great meal courtesy of the RAF (we love JPA) Thanks to the staff here at the Exeter TA centre for letting us overnight in their accommodation, cheers fellas. Well another day over time to give the old girl a good going over and the tandem a quick lube up enjoy the photos more to follow tomorrow. (depending on 3G connection)
