Traffic and hills on the increase. Weather on the decrease. Hmmm...
Headed out on the original London Road through more beautiful villages. Stopped in a village I now can't find on Google maps for lunch at the pub. Loads of directional advice from lots of people which in the end steered me onto the River Lee cycle path from Broxbourne to Bow. Before I found the path I was doing an average of 20mph. I forgot that not all cycle paths are tarmac or straight or quiet. It was nice though, put some tunes on the ipod and slowly but surely made it to London. Popped up from the canal path at Bow Road around quarter to five on a friday evening. Busy!
No map of London and the new challenge of beating the Horse to Liverpool Street Station by six o'clock. After about twenty, "excuse me"s and jumping out in front of a courier to get his map, I got to Liverpool Street at ten to; just in time to phone the Bitch to ruin his bet of me not making it further than Douglas, applying the obligatory brutal eye make-up and having a fag.
Leg 1 complete!

"applying the obligatory brutal eye make-up and having a fag." ...Love it. That's the Jo I remember.
