THE CUNNING PLAN!


We have finally agreed a route from Lands End to John O’Groats as indicated below. We want to keep it fluid though so we have decided not to book accommodation in advance. If we’re having a good day we might crack on further and if we’re having a bad day (surely not!) we might want to stop a bit earlier.

We have acquired a good book called Beer, Bed & Breakfast (apparently there isn’t a book called Beer, Pies, Bed & Breakfast unfortunately) which appears to fit the bill, and we aim to stay in as many pubs as possible.

Our first day’s cycling is 24th June and we hope to start blogging the next day!
