Wallace has a bike failure.

Delayed post due to poor coverage.

Shortly after our last stop Wallace, following in the second group, had issues with his chain jamming.  This was some way out. Wallace refused to come back in the back up van and one of the guys sent out their bike so Wallace could finish the ride. Hats go off to Wallace and Drew who stayed with him.  And thanks to Ken and Moz who did all the running about while the rest of us got cleaned up and went to eat.

Wallace and Drew both arrived some what late. By which time the pub had stopped serving food. However, the pub did generously allowed them to eat their take out with us. But only after having Id-ed Drew when we ordered them both some drinks.

Their Chinese looked good. Our pub food  was excellent and, even though the portions were large, we nearly all went for three courses. Hungry work cycling.

The evening ended with us all staggering back to the youth hostel. Staggering not because of drink but due to the legs forgetting how to walk.
