John O'Groats to Lands End
September 2009
Welcome to our John O'Groats to Land End website.
Follow our trip on our blog, we will post updates and photos whenever we stumble across an internet cafe.
We are starting our cycle from John O'Groats on Sunday 30th August.
In August this year we will be making our way up to Scotland (that could be the biggest challenge) and then cycling down hill all the way back down to Cornwall.
We are planning to do this over 14 days, averaging approximately 70 miles per day at a total of 983 miles. We have both always hoped to do this challenge and felt if we could help a local charity along the way then all the better. We have therefore decided to raise money for the Calvert Trust who based up on Exmoor enable people with disabilities, together with their families and friends, to achieve their potential through outdoor adventure activities in the countryside.
Our website gives a little more information about the Calvert Trust and the good work they do. You can also view our route and how far we intend to cycle each day.
Please click the donate button and make a small contribution,
it'll make all the training and saddle sore's worth while.
We are also cycling from John O'Groats to Lands End in memory or Maria's dad who gave a lot of his time and energy supporting many charities.
Finally a thank you to the people below who have supported our trip.
Maria & Andy
