Weymouth to Home. 7 miles (not including the train)
Posted by Brock under British Cycle Tours, Margate to Weymouth
Woke up early to the greyest rainiest foggiest day yet. Started packing up in the wet, and got absolutely soaked. We cycled soggily down the hill into Weymouth and found our way to the
train station. Luckily the train was sitting on the platform, and once I’d paid some extortionate amount of money we slopped our way onto the carriage and stood there dripping. The trains down there in the West have much better provision for cycles than South Eastern. We have to push wheelchair users out of the way to get one bike strapped to the side, but these purpose built bays would fit three bicycles tidily. Good work South West trains! We managed to change into some drier clothes in the loo and sat down for the journey home. One change at waterloo, and then a last few miles riding home from Minster station marked the end of our journey.
I think we did quite well really ![]()

Good luck on your mega-trip mate, I have remembered to bookmark your l33t site now.Also take your brown sauce with you, you may never find any in foreignshire.

Thanks for the travel tip Bam, but apparently if you mix pasata, chorizo oil, garlic and bicycle headset grease it’s possible to rustle up quite a good approximation of brown sauce, so we should be ok!
