Day #5 : Into Dent

After getting into Tarporley on Thursday the 4 x 100 mile days had taken their toll and another 105 through Liverpool and Manchester with unfavourable wind seemed (from the comfort of my own home) too much to bite off on another consecutive day.

So, on the Friday we called a rest day and cut it back to a shorter ride (sorry no Strava for this one; lost on a big Garmin clickcident) from the Lake District up into Dent - a really pretty town in the borders. This got us back onto our accommodation schedule.

Got to Dent about 2 pm and fell asleep for two hours - woke up in time to eat and then slept again. Legs starting to recharge..

Dent : Reminiscent of the Hovis ads - riding on cobbles is not quaint though - it's painful!
