Day 3. A dry start which was very welcome. Porridge at 5.45 then a flyer at 6.30 a.m.. The day was filled with cool, flat forest trails, green lanes, climbs to amazing viewpoints and lovely people along the way. I had to complete 24 miles to get to Dursley and I got to the pub at 6.20, nearly 12 hours after I had started! Mission accomplished!
Only £250 needed to get Tomo to his target of £2,000.
