This is a big day, off to John O, Groats. From the Kyle of Sutherland we headed due north through what was one of the most beautiful roads imaginable. Hills valleys, heather, moorland, trout rivers and the sun ciming through the mist and lighting up the hills. It was like this all the way to […]
111 miles today from Fort William to the Kyle of Sutherland. The route traversed Scotland and ran along the great glen. The highlight was a beautiful ride along the banks of Loch Ness, The Loch was still and serene in the lifting lilac coloured mist. After a quick chat with Nessie it was on to […]
Today was a very difficult day with one of our fellow riders involved in a high speed head on crash with a car. She has serious head and other injuries and others. We haven’t had any news yet but everyone is wishing her the best. I know this is a lot of detail but it […]
Day 4 and have now reached Haydock Park near Liverpool. About 421 miles covered. Knutsford City Limits – Knutsford in Cheshire gets the prize for rhe tallest town sign so far! Today was nice and flat after the first 20 miles which made a change. Lucky for me as I’ve done the last 200 miles […]
