1000 Mile Bike Ride

Lands End to John O'Groats (LEJOG)

Whatever am I thinking of?

In attempting this 1000 (and a bit more) Mile Bike Ride I have decided to do it staying in bed and breakfasts, supported by a company, bikeADVENTURES, who organise this sort of thing. It will be over a two week period from the 10th June to 24th June 2007.

There are a few reasons for this:

  1. It is a good opportunity to raise money for charity.
  2. There will be somebody to talk to.
  3. Everything is organised for you.
  4. Your kit is carried for you.
  5. Any quicker, and I couldn't manage it!
