Day 9

Well i'm fucked! Slight hazy head but not the first time that i've gone skating still feeling a little drunk from the night before! Skating is probably the best remedy for feeling a bit shady, well not 10 hours of it! The road to 'Saltash' was pretty horrible, i think it was the way i was feeling that didn't help, after a few hours and sweating out the alcohol in my body i begun to feel alot better. From 'Saltash' it was back on the A38 heading towards 'Liskeard', i had decided to take an A road instead of a B road and i was glad i had, there was yet again a lack of paths to skate so it was in the road and prepare myself for some abuse from drivers and also an opportunity for some more international sign language, i wish they all knew what i was doing and maybe there attitude would be different? Once i had hit 'Liskeard' i was faced with a decision- to head down to St Austell and have a short skate to Newquay the next day or push on and just get the job done? 19 miles or could my body hang out long enough to do 30? Being so close to the finish of this skate i made the decision of going on to Newquay. I had pumped myself up so much for this last bit as i knew it was going to kill me! So that was it, i was on the road to Newquay and had passed the A390 to St Austell- no going back now! The A30 was a good wide bit of road and was a god send with the fact that it made it more relaxing to skate along, after passing through Victoria and Castle an Dinas it was onto the A39 and then onto the A392 towards Quintrell Downs, by this time i really just wanted it to be over, my body is hurting so much i cant explain the pain i was feeling. I had about 6 miles to go, that's about an hour! Well bout an hour an a half later i was fucking there, i had made it! I had just skateboarded from Maidstone to Newquay! Jesus Christ i had done it and i must admit i was a bit emotional about it! FUCKING AVE IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
