Starting tonight and ending sometime at the weekend, Guy Martin and l will be riding our bikes coast to coast across Scotland from Berwick on Tweed to Stranraer, riding all of the 7 Stanes mountain bike trails along the way.
On arrival in Stranraer, we’ll be getting on a ferry to Northern Ireland (Friday evening hopefully) and riding from coast to coast there too, also riding the four MTB trails over there. The total distance is about 600 miles, about 150miles of it is offroad.
We’ll be dining on petrol station cuisine and sleeping in bus shelters, but mainly we’ll be pedalling.
This is in aid of the Ride For Michael charity, helping a Michael Bonney get back on a bike after an accident left him paralysed from the neck down.
