Cycle from Land's End to John O'Groats

My girlfriend and I were planning to do Land’s End to John O’Groats this September after having our imaginations fired by a friend who did it last year.

We intend to do it over 3 weeks as we would like it to be semi-enjoyable and we may camp or use hostels – we’re not sure yet. Camping seems like the more attractive option at the moment, simply due to cost. We’ve pushed it back to March next year, as my girlfriend has just got a new job and so is unable to get 3 weeks holiday until next year – but this is probably a blessing in disguise, as although we had started training, we probably weren’t doing nearly enough!
