Up early and away was the Badcock motto, luckily for the rest of us the campsite had a 7am curfew a lie in till 7am on a sunday what a treat. Campsite breakfast was spoilt by the fact that Badcock told me not to bother then he gets his own boil in bag out and has marvels at how fast it all happens in his new Jetboil (and it was a present from me).
First call of the day was a return trip to the village from the previous night to take a few photos before heading for the first battlefield of the day at Stratton. What a fantastic run, early sunday morning and the roads where ours, luckily we had to backtrack to our start before heading for Stonehenge (no not a battlefield another bit of culture) and Hastings.
Campsite 2 at hoseasons was terrible in comparison to other sites I have stopped at (motor home) £64 for 4 small tents and a dated toilet block to suit. arriving at 5.30pm and a food service that shut at 6pm will not be a repeat.
Anyway it was still dry but very windy on the hill top.
Day 2 Route - our campsite 12 miles west of Exeter, but we went in and out to Bude on the coast, a great bike road
