Last July I fulfilled a long standing dream of mine and cycled from Lands End to John O'Groats!
While our 2 week ride time won't be winning any records, we had a fantastic journey that we'll remember for a very long time to come. So if you've ever thought about doing it, all I can say is DO IT!!! You won't regret it.

Things I learnt on the way:
– Don't bother cutting your toothbrush in half. Makes f-all difference and just gives you hand cramp.
– Good shorts are really, really important. I used Sugoi RS which were the shizzle.
– Scotland is very nice. Widnes less so.
– Ride with people who you get on with.
– You'll get to see lots of rare british animals such as red squirrels, moles, hedgehogs, badgers and barn owls. Unfortunately, they'll all be dead.
