We then got to our half way point a place called Shap in Cumbria, the landscapes were stunning and the boys were pleased to get off busy roads onto a more scenic route..
Whilst cycling to the borders the boys came upon children jumping into a river, so considering the hot weather and the injuries, they took full advantage..
As you can Stuart really enjoyed the dip and looked some what like the "Man from Atlantis"
Whilst the boys were wasting/enjoying valuable time Kelvin was stuck in a lay by on the A7 on his own waiting for the agreed photo call at the border with Scotland...They finally made it and apologized profusely and we were all friends again..
Yet again, during dinner we were approached by the next table asking what we were doing and with no hesitation they made a donation to Chase which we would like to thank them for.
I quick update on progress we have covered to date 536 miles we cant wait to find out how the bike challenge is going with all of you at Holy Trinity Primary School....
