Sunshine nearly all day with little or following wind, perfect cycling weather.

Temperatures rose very quickly.


A fairly easy day with 3 major climbs with plenty of short steep bits in between.


Mark was first back to base by a considerable margin.


At lunch time I inspected the cut that I made on my tyre yesterday and saw that the tube was showing through the tyre, I was carrying a fold up spare so I changed it immediately.


All cyclists completed the stage.


Poor old Steve (Bike Adventures) has been suffering from raging toothache all week, he has had 2 root canal fillings done on consecutive days but the problem still remains.
