Day 6: York to North Killingholme. Approx 70 miles.

I went the wrong way. What a gutter. It should have been about 50 miles. Anyway today was probably the worst day so far for a number of reasons:

1. Going the wrong way meant 20 needless miles.
2. Goole. This place should be called Hell but its not so that unsuspecting cycle tourers go for lunch only to find that Tesco cafe is all thats on offer.
3. Scunthorpe. The only place I have been shouted at so far. AND, by an old man on a bike of all things. Horrid, in every way.
4. The A180 which is essentially a motorway filled with massive lorries going at 80mph.
5. Drax and Keadby power stations. Not the most attractive sights to go past.
6. Immingham oil refinery. See above.
7. The wind. 'Nuff said.

Thank god the place I stayed was good. TV and DVD in my own room with a copy of Pride and Prejudice. Awesome.
