Rob rode 65 miles today and is camped at Eastbridge Farm at Leiston.
He says that on previous long trips he's found the third day to be the worst, so he's hoping for stronger legs and increased mileage over the next few days. He sounds as if he's tired but enjoying himself.
He's wondering whether he'll be able to complete the whole route given that he's not doing the mileages he hoped for so far, but we have several potential "bail out" possibilities in that event, and in any case he's only three days in, so it's a tad early to be getting too pessimistic yet.

How long did he expect the whole thing to take?
We go away for our holiday together on May 15th. He was hoping to get back to Mablethorpe a few days before that, so about five and a half weeks to do about 4100 miles. So he'd need to average a bit over a hundred miles a day to do the whole thing in that time. Not impossible, but definitely a challenge :-)
I think, were it not that he's barely ridden at all for more than a year, he'd probably do it with comparative ease. But then it's because of not riding for all that time that he's doing it at all...
I was saying yesterday to
I daresay the pub is the one he had dinner in last night as he described it as next door to the farm...
