Dates and Route

The objective is to complete the challenge in 15 days, which is on average 70 miles each and every day.

I will embark on my journey to Land’s End on Saturday, March 12th, ready to begin the expedition the following day. My proposed route, along with distances, are shown below and I hope to roll over the “finish line” in John O’Groats on Sunday, March 28th.

During the trip, I hope to have a GPS setup so that you can keep tabs of where I am right here, live on this website. 

It also means that if anyone wants to jump on their bike for a day or two, and give me some moral support throughout the journey, you’re more than welcome to join me… I think I will be grateful for the company (although it will be me setting the pace!)

I have now almost decided upon my final route, which you can see below:
