Day 8


Today sees the group set with two challenges. Challenge 1 is our longest day with around 100 miles of cycling. Challenge 2 was one of time, with the group having to make it to Ardrossen in time to catch the last ferry at 6pm. This called for an early start and for the group to raise their pace. Somehow we made the earlier sailing at 4:15 and the group boarded the ferry to Aaran.
