meeting Jock Elliot and his friends who were staying in the bothy about a mile from the ferry. Jock helped Peter with some emergency repairs to his derailleur mechanism, but once beyond the bothy we were by several miles the most Nothwesterly people on the UK mainland. In the fog we felt a long way from the world as we know it.
The rest of the trip went basically as planned except for my accident! I went back and did the section I had missed from Northallerton with another friend Paul Wilkinson in September. We had unremitting headwinds, which were often strong and this is reflected in the low speeds. The records on the following pages are in three parts reflecting the disjointed nature of my D2D.
