Garmin was u/s again and all the way to Berwick upon Tweed. So back to old fashioned maps and re plot route.
Good news - the sun was out
Bad news 5/10 mph headwind with nearly 90 miles to cover.
Well it was head down and we cracked on to Hawick where we stopped for lunch.
Back on the bikes and we cut across to Kelso, thru Coldstream and Cornhill before arriving at Berwick Rangers Football club who made us most welcome.
Also there to meet us were Steve and Martin who had travelled down from Edinburgh by train that afternoon. Steve and Martin will be cycling back to Edinburgh tomorrow as well so no doubt there will be extra banter and more hands on deck if something goes wrong with the bikes. Martin being full of energy will know doubt throw me a tow line!
Lots of photos and it was off to B&B for rest and recouperation.
nearly 90 miles done
5/10 mph headwind
still sore backside
knee still playing up
approx 950 miles cycled so far
40 clubs visited
only 2 clubs left to do
one more day left
Will the Garmin jump back into life? I hope so because there are tricky roads tomorrow.
