After a great American style breakfast at chez Jez we set off in the 'support' vehicle!!
We then found the start of the C2C and posed for some pics!
A fairly comfortable first day although the Penrith 10 mile signs seemed to last for 5 miles!So we decided to have a beer to see us through to the finish!
Only problem of Day 1, which did teach me a few lessons:
1) Panniers that get trapped in the spokes get ripped to shreds.
2) Dom had preferential treatment at dirt wheels as my frame was dodgy.
3) Don't be a cheap skate and buy decent gear! (bike tools included!)
