Laid up in Lacock

End of day one sees me in Lacock, Wiltshire, somewhere near Trowbridge. Tent pitched, showered, I am now quaffing a pint of Wadsworth 6X in The George Inn. It's been a tough ride, so I deserve it ;-)

Lacock is a strange village. I can't work out if it's genuine, or some kind of theme village. I keep expecting to see locals doing archery practice (as required by the King instead of football).

Where did I go after lunch? The RBR Wiltshire landmark was the first stop. This was a unique and ancient stone - can't give too m,y details or I'll be disqualified. Then on towards Swindon on the back roads - lots of thatched cottages. Chippenham was a pit stop for water - what a hot day- a chat with another biker, and information about campsites.
