BILL HONEYWELL: Day 62 – Pembrey to Freshwater East (Pembroke)

BILL HONEYWELL: Day 62 – Pembrey to Freshwater East (Pembroke): "At Pendine, where there is an MOD establishment and a Museum of Speed (the sands here are long and flat, and were used for the World Land Speed Record for some time), the road took a steep turn upwards into a very heavy shower. For the second time on this ride, I was stopped by a farmer moving cattle along the road. He told me how they were bothered by tuberculosis now and again which meant that they had to kill lots of stock, getting only animal food prices for them. Most farmers seem very friendly – providing you don’t leave gates open or drop things that could be eaten by their stock."
