Bikes in for much needed repairs. In the rain & 2 hours behind we found ourselves lost in Perth & some how on a dual carriage way with cars speeding at120 k's per hour plus. Once realising our mistake & tried to pull over to the verge only to lose control & plant myself on the road with my head only inches from traffic - scary I can assure you!
30kms later Michael joined the prang club when he also came of his bike & landed heavily in the wet.
Both shaken but recovered we climbed another damned hill one too many- Arriving at the Forth Bridge near Edinburgh at 7pm still 30 kms from our destination. Luckily my bother & his family came to our rescue putting up 2 very soggy very, very sore cyclist( thanks chris, Maggie & Shane)

Hi Monlka & Family,
Just seen Day 8 photograph, you all look a bit rough around the edges, but a beautiful rough, enjoyed the photgraphic scenery of the last couple of days bet you can't wait to look at it in an album. Onwards and downwards
remember you are British, not that that is much bl---y help pushing those pedals.
Proud of the team Litchfield,
Mick
Take care Monika!
What you are doing is amazing and you are my hero. When you get back(no doubt slim, taut and terrific) there will be an invitation out to lunch with PWP and it will be our shout!
love
Anne
