Saturday was an “off the bike” day, so I got the bus into Chichester for a wander around. A heyuuuge Full English & large pot of tea set me up for the day. It seems a pleasant & pretty place. The cathedral was pre-occupied with mourning, but I was able to have a good look around. Well worth the time. Even a gorgeous window designed by Chagall.
I also went to Pallant House gallery, see links in Arts & Entertainments.
Today has been vaguely disappointing! I’ve done some lovely riding, but covered very little distance. Faffage meant I wasn’t on the road until 11. I went up minor roads towards Goodwood, which appeared to have something on, with lots of “road closed” signs which I ignored. Quite a few sports cars around. I saw a pub in East Dean with a sign saying “cyclists refreshment stop “, so I had to check it out. A pint & a toasted club sandwich.
Back on the road & I began to think about a campsite. There didn’t seem many in the direction I wanted to go within easy reach. I also needed to shop for meths & teabags!
The village shop at Graffham provided both. The C&CC site is my home for the night. I’ve stayed here once before. Very quiet & very dark. A good place.
