Day 12 -Worcester to Milcombe/Banbury. 43 miles

Keith, Daniel, Christine and Tilley

Began off wearing my waterproofs but gentle refreshing rain mostly- not like the torrent in Whitchchurch. Gentle rides through country roads to Broadway.All villages seem to be having blubell teas this weekend; all very English rural scenery and villages.
Enjoyed tea in a very proper tea room(tablecloths) and watched the locals outside-designer tripod compulsory. I began in Worcestershire,cycled through Gloucestershire,Warickshire to Oxfordshire ...a lot of hills on the second part of the route.now relaxing for day off with John and Christine and Tilley the dog.(brother and sister in-law.)

day 12 no miles, rest day.i am expecting son, Keith and nephew Daniel with fancy French racing bike to arrive this evening,i have a horrible feeling he will expect me to keep up with him on road to Reading tomorrow.
