Day 3 (second of cycling)

Day 3 (but second on the loaded bike) Leaving Edinburgh (after hesitation to buy sunscreen, and handlebar holder adjustment..) along the Portobello beach up to Mussellburgh, lovely and windy; then head off through the countryside over the B roads, quiet enough. Heading to the Lommermuir Hills (fairly steep! Some 17% and 14% bits!) passing the Whiteadder reservoir and going down towards the Northumberland area. An other very sunny day that cooked me over my burnt, when I stopped for my dinner in a place likely to host me for the night, I did hesitate to continue as it was quite early, but I just crashed and pitched the tent for the night, sun knackered!
