L2P - Day 2 Calais - Abbeville

Must remember to ride on the right!!!!
Alarm Call - Breakfast - Get on bike and go (amazing how quick you get into a routine!)
Today a little band of 5 of us formed a group to ride with - Ivor, Dave, Melvin, Andrew (my room-mate for the duration) and myself, and we set off last with the pyschological tought of catching up all those ahead - a rabbit or two to chase!
And chase we did, had pulled back most of the field by the first water stop, and then arrived in the first 10 or so at lunch, after lunch we again set off together - my cycle computer went AWOL for a period but soon rectified itself, and we finished the day in at the IBIS Hotel in Abbeville literally just before the heavens opened. A good meal and a few beers later, we headed off for bed, aiming to at least close our eyes briefly before the alarm call...
