Day 4 - Rest day Exford

Exford

Oh what a joy to rest aching muscles, clean dirty clothes and generally laze around with a rare appearance of the English sun.

Used time to chisel mud collected on bike from yesterday's ride along the Tarka. A general check showed the bikes are already showing signs of wear with the brakes taking a hammering from the descents as we've learned that most downhills have a hairpin bend hidden in them.

We even sought inspiration by watching the Tour de France realising that the 17% gradient road leaving Exford was going to be one he'll of a challenge
