Failure!!! 2 weeks ago

We tried and failed.
My engine burned through all it’s oil and seized up, ended up having to scrap the bike and catch train home. Was not a happy time.
But am over it now and planning to re-visit this goal once I’ve out of debt and on a proper bike, so in about three years then.

Crashed out after 200 miles with a busted knee 1 month ago

April 2009, I got as far as Bristol, cycling north. Note to others, don’t take on the hills on a long day. I knackered my knee doing it. Next time I’ll take the more gentler A30

Motorbiking it 9 months ago

I’m doing this on motorbike with my brother this summer, we’re both just doing our CBT’s now and getting the gear together. Will do a short ride including a night camping a month before the trip to test everything out.



Amazing Journey 22 months ago

Did this in Oct 07 and it was the best 2 weeks of my life, if you’re considering this, just go and do it – you won’t regret it!



I've only ever done an 80 mile route so far... 22 months ago

but if (or rather when) i can get fitter then i’d definitely be up for doing this – amazing achievement.



Top to bottom... JOGLE 3 years ago

I cycled (mountain bike) from John O’Groats to Lands End in 2003. Didn’t go particulary fast, 13 days to to bottom, but wanted to enjoy the ride. I did it on my own rather than with a group although I did have a support vehicle to meet with each day so I didn’t have to carry tent and supplies… Would love to do Canada to Mexico next time but need to get the business stable so I can take 3 months off to do it!



superb! 3 years ago

Wonderful, and in a heatwave too! One of my “alltime” great experiences. Recommend it to anyone who enjoys cycling as a great trip.
