Bike to Banbury
Today was classified as a “recovery” day. There was much sleep that needed to be had as well as having one day where we’re not walking for 10 hours straight. We were however a bit low on supplies (foot etc), so wanted to make a trip into town. But somewhere in this plan we thought it’d be a good idea to bike there (considering the cost of cabs around here it really was our only option). It seemed simple enough until we discovered the condition of the bikes here. I was basically riding a fifteen year old women’s bike, which had a loose pedal crank shaft that slowly become less and less functional along our journey. There was even a bit of rain to add to it all. Great idea boys.
Rickety ride along the countryside.
