It's been very enjoyable so far, with only one near-death experience with a stupid 4x4 driver. I also managed to take a wrong turn somewhere and did a nice little circle around Nantwich bypass, adding 3 or 4 miles onto the journey.
As I get closer to the Welsh border, the roads seem to be getting a lot more undulating and there was a beautiful moment as I came over the crest of a long climb, starting to flag quite severely, and had almost a mile of downhill followed by a sign at the bottom advertising home-cooked bacon butties! I feel quite justified scoffing a double portion.
Remarkably, given the weather forecast, the weather has been almost perfect - not too hot, not too cold, and the rain has stayed off so far. There was a bit of a headwind an hour or so ago, but that seems to have died down now luckily.
There are some fairly ominous clouds lurking on the horizon, however, so the waterproofs might have to come out yet...
