This extremely short segment was done on another rainy day just to get it over with. The bus schedule dictated that it be done in reverse. It involved not much more than a quick bus ride up to Pyecombe, which is a tiny, beautiful village ruined by the A23, then a quick climb onto the escarpment, and then a jog of a few miles over to Ditchling Beacon. There I begged a cup of tea from the ice cream truck and waited for the bus. Who but the British would expect to be able to sell ice cream in mid-December in the cold rain on top of a windy hill?
