Day 7 Bembridge to Calshot
Left relatively early for Bembridge and arrived before much was happening, I then retraced my steps to get to Cowes. Unfortunately the chain ferry was not working so I had to head around the river to reach the lifeboat station. I then went all the way down to the south coast of the island and up the south western road which was a lovely ride and worth the detour. The road ended in Yarmouth where I met some lovely people who had heard about my trip! I then caught the ferry into Lymington and headed for the Calshot lifeboat station. I was unlucky enough to get caught in a shower on my way back and decided to wait it out in a pub before realising the rain wasn’t stopping and heading for a campsite nearby. The first nights camping of the trip!
