Anyone else following his trip?

I realise that it is a little late as he started in March in London going clockwise and has just crossed into Suffolk, so there can only be a week or so left.

The boy is having quite an adventure!

He has a nice chat with the OS peeps here^^. I like his idea of 'the invisible peloton', it's so true!

He is tweeting about it flat out. Seems like a lovely chap who has had a rough time, he lost his brother a while back.

The most important thing to do is not to keep going, but to stop as often as possible and look at everything. Take it in, smell it, taste it, feel it, be part of it.

A good plan 😀

I think he paused, or hesitated, got a bash on his head like this.
