31/8/09 We're just here in St Just - few miles from Land's End..

Uneventful journey down - met a few fellow LEJOGers at Paddington. They set off on the 1206 & I waited for the 1306 meeting up with Andy & another lone LEJOGGER on a new bike with only 2 panniers!
Eventually met at Penzance Station by Jason in a big van. Fantastic steak at The Wellington Hotel as chatter turned to all things bike/hills/rain etc.
Breakfast 0730 & off for photos at LE 0900. There is a predicted strong (AND WET) SW wind. #
And Wednesday on Dartmoor predicted to be poor weather before things ease off....We have no choice but to get on with it
Any nice 3 pints of 'Tinners Cornish Bitter' and an early night.
Room-mate dave just commented that this should be 'the ride of our lives!'
ALE OF THE DAY - Tinners Bitter (Cornwall) lightly sparkled cool slips down easily

This is it Clive.
This is the big one!
Good luck and keep those pedals going.
Hope it's not too wet down there in Cornwall and Dartmoor.
Keep in touch.

did you stick together as a group or go at your own pace?
