Day 2: Tintagel -> Tiverton

There's a definite trade off. You can have amazing panoramas as long as you slog up near vertical roads for them. The scenery is stunning, and arriving in Tiverton close to complete exaustion is testament to that. Light drizzle and thankfully overcast as my nose is looking a bit pink from yesterday's sun. Day also included a very pleasing lack of cars and an unsuccessful attempt to follow 'The Ruby Way' which is an off road section of Sustrans Route 3 - far to bumpy and given knee preservation is key I quickly reverted to the A3072.
