blog Cycling End to End 1 Comment

WOW! Was it really 8 years ago today, that I started an adventure of a life time? Yep it really was! On this day back in 2009, I started the first day of the End to End cycle. So in other words cycling all the way from John O’Groats at the top of mainland Scotland to Land’s End! A cycle of 990 miles, taken 16 days!

Here are some photos from day one, which took us from John O’Groats to Tongue a distance of 64.23 miles.

Can’t believe it, it was 7 years ago today, that I finished the End to End cycle, that took me all the way from John O’Groats at the top mainland Scotland all the way to Land’s End, at the very bottom of England!

The route was 990.30 miles and took 16 days, one of them being a rest day!

I would still, rate it has one the best things, I’ve ever done!

I still really want to the End to End cycle again at some point! Just need to find some fit lads to do it with me!! When I say fit, I mean good looking! Any offers???

I made it from John O’Groats to Land’s End :)

I made it all the way from John O’Groats to Land’s End. I am, so, so proud of myself. It’s even more amazing, since I did well over half of the cycle by myself, since Mike pulled out of the End to End cycle and ended our 3 year relationship at the same time. It just goes to show that I am a lot stronger that I use to be.

You still have to to donate money to the National Autistic Society, via my justgiving page at www.justgiving.com/endtoend09. You can also check out photos from the cycle at www.endtoend-cycle.com.

Oh and also happy birthday to my wee brother Craig.
