This has been the worst leg so far. I cycled 45 miles across the Scottish/English border to end in Carlisle. However, I was cycling into a full on head wind with driving rain. Despite my waterproof clothing, I was soaked through to the skin.
The views were great, at those few moments when I was able to look up, but the rain kept my head down on the road.

The only moment when I was not dogged by driving rain and high winds was as I crossed the border. By this point I was extremely tired.
On a positive note, my old school friend Dan Ewing who I haven't seen for ages, came to join me in a borrowed campervan and we enjoyed catching up over tea and a bottle of wine in the warmth of the van this evening.

Just hoping for some drier weather tomorrow as apart from being miserable cycling conditions, the wind slows me right down!
