Day 6: 106 Miles. Blackburn to Shrewsbury.
The groans of pain from 5 days cycling in some very challenging landscapes and weather can be heard as we bid goodbye to Blackburn & head south to Shrewsbury. Riding in temperatures reaching the high 20’s via Wigan, Warrington & Whitchurch. All riders are suffering from a lack of sleep, combined with severe discomfort caused by muscle & knee fatigue.
This was a day for ‘heads down’ no-nonsense riding. All riders determined to ignore the heat & pain to get to the hotel earlier than 9pm after 13 hours riding. It REALLY IS that hard. Please keep supporting this great cause, these boys are working incredibly hard to complete this challenge, just4jake.
