June-2021 bicycle-ride video episode-4 Salisbury to Bognor Regis, it’s a nice early start for Garry as he leaves his overnight stop at the campsite on the outskirts of Salisbury. It’s a fast ride through Salisbury, as there is a separate video all of its own for that.
After cycling through Salisbury Garry’s onto the quiet country lanes of Wiltshire and Hampshire, it’s a familiar route to Garry despite having not cycled that way for a year or two. Although, it does take Garry a while to realise this! And it only becomes apparent to Garry when he comes across the level crossing that was closed a few years ago, causing Garry a big detour where he got lost! But there was no getting lost this time, that’s despite a road closure further on. That’s the joy of using an App instead of a map. Although Garry always carries a map still, he’s not 100% into relying on technology!
The quiet country lanes and pretty villages soon give way to the city of Southampton, where Garry has to decide on which way to go, which, to be honest, wasn’t that hard to make! Decision made Garry sets off on the final leg of the day. Just as the storm clouds gather above, will Garry finish his ride before the heavens open on him?

81 miles in that weather. Wow!
It’s downhill from Salisbury to home! And it only rained for the last 12 or so miles.
