My 38th Day on a bike around the British Isles.

Yesterday the family dropped me at Tiverton Parkway station with my bike (many tears) I switched trains in Birmingham to take the train to liverpool.

Had messaged Sue Sinclair from Community Watchman Ministries (www.cwmprayer.com) to let her know i was passing through and she kindly adjusted her diary and we met up for an hour in Liverpool. – always an encouragement.

I took the tube to Birkenhead (only 9 minutes) then rode across Birkenhead to the ferry port to catch the overnight boat from Liverpool to Belfast.

The crossing was smooth i upgraded to a cabin..slept really well. Arrived 6.30am. I had left myself a bit short on time as I had a train from Belfast to Port Rush at 7.20 and about 7km in between. Jesus said it’d make it i just needed to do my part !!

I arrived at the station with three minutes to spare. Negotiatiated escalators as efficiently as possible with a loaded touring bike.. 30 seconds on the platform and train arrived.

So just passing through Antrim as I write.

Arrived at Port Rush to some beautiful North Coast swell..

And straight onto Dunseverick Castle the start of the historic 5 roads. So I turned South and headed for Ballymena and to meet Jonathan Leakey and the ladies and Gents with him at Ballymena House of Prayer.

I arrived towards the end of their session but had a lovely time pray forbeach other and for their House of Prayer.

I took sometime for a sandwich and then headed south towards Antrim and loch nee.

Legs were now tired. Arrived in Crumlin at 5.40pm long day in the saddle. Over 100km.
