The first leg of our journey is complete. We set off from my house at 5.15pm, our destination, Portsmouth harbour.
After following the meticulous route directions for half an hour we realised we had already taken a wrong turn and added an extra 4 miles to our journey! We quickly made up the deficit and with an exhilarating climb up Portsdown hill to get the bikes warmed up we free wheeled into Pompey, making the ferry in excellent time.
Fed and watered I'm writing this drinking a beer and watching a very dodgey music act in the ferry's bar - now I know where all the failed acts of Britain's got talent end up.
Great news regarding the Half Baked Brand shirts. We cycled onto the ferry and the first cyclist we met commented on how great the 'milking it' shirts were so they are already getting attention.
