Distance: 67.8 miles
Average speed: 10.4 mph
Total time: 10 hours
Today was the day we least looked forward, it was almost all on busy roads, trying to navigate around the industrial hinterlands of Glasgow, the city centre and the tenements, places like the Gorbals, that strike fear in to every A-Level Geography students heart as we all learnt about them as examples of how cities go bad! It was hot and grimy but once we got in to the centre of Glasgow there was a 20 mile cycle track all the way to Loch Lomond, this went through more industrial estates on the Clyde and through more housing estates and mostly involved cycling over a path of broken glass. Anyway, we broke through to Loch Lomond and made it to the very impressive pseudo castle Youth Hostel over looking the loch, where we had wine on the lawn.
