Right, day 1 is pretty much over. Didn’t go perfectly to plan, beginning with knee pain less than an hour in, and then having my light mounting bracket snap a few hours after that, and then realising that the charge cable that has worked perfectly for years and still did last week had chosen today to fail.
There should be a light in this picture…
Happily though the knee seemed to stabilise with a bit of nursing, and I was able the reattach the light with a special high tech engineering solution, known to those of us in the industry as “zip-ties”, and I had another option for charging cables, so with a bit of stuffing around I managed to get 428km in today. I’ve just stopped for dinner and am basically done, I will just roll down the road to find somewhere to sleep.
Coverage is pretty patchy here, so posts might be few and far between!

Bummer, rough start. Sounds like things improving though. Hope you are not heading into the 39 degree day we are forecast for! Might need to take a side trip to the night to catch some sea breeze in few days. 👍
Wow 428km?!? That’s massive bro!
