Day 24 Lifton to Newquay 95km's

Just when we thought we'd experienced every weather condition on trip... The day started with rain & thunderstorm threatening (so much for yesterday's sun)
We quickly cycled through historic Launceston & then skirted Bodmin Moor encountering a "Pea souper" before taking on the A road (not ideal in the conditions) & entering entering the forgettable Camelford.
More moors & more rain & mist as we finally made Padstow & well publicised & scenic trail taking it to Padstow.
The 16 miles to Newquay were rollercoasters packed with great coastal scenery. We arrived in Newquay around 7pm with the realization that after 23 days we were now only 80kms from the finish line at Lands End!
