Day 14 - Stogumber to Okehampton

Today was quite short, so it was supposed to be like a day off. I took things quite slowly to begin with but was soon introduced to the Devon hills. In Scotland the road builders built the roads around the hills, but down here they have built them straight over the top of every hill sadistically.
Passed lots of cyclists around Crediton who were in a cycle race and lots of them have cheery waves. Also saw my first jogler.
Only 2 more days to go.

2 Days to go! Nearly there just more of those evil Cornish hills. At least the view is good and pasties are in good supply!

I was just looking at your route. You take the same coastal end as we did. It is hilly but well worth it the last 30 miles are beautiful.

Keep going mate you are doing fantastically. Especially solo. Very Impressive!
