Arrived at Landsend from the guest house [Weavers at Sennen]. Couldn't have our photo taken under the signpost because they don't put it up till 1030! Had to settle for Photo under the entrance sign instead. It has been sunny and hot since about 1000 after initial fog at Landsend.
Did 67 miles to Treyarnon Bay Youth Hostel yes we are young enough. It has been a very hard day - Cornwall is very hilly.
Youth Hostel is in tremendous location overlooking Treyarnon Bay but I think we will be to bed early.
Still no photos for the blog as phone is not performing for photo messages yet - will try and rectify soon.
Oh by the way Maureen has decided that we are carrying too much gear, this will be rectified in Penrith on the 16th/17th
Why?
This year, in fact until June 2008, John is President of Penrith Rotary Club. As a personal contribution to club fundraising, and because we want to, we have decided to cycle from Lands End to John o' Groats.We hope to raise lots of money for Cancer Research UK and Eden Valley Children's Hospice in Carlisle UK. The plan is to do the ride in May 2008 without support; just 2 bodies 2 bikes and 4 panniers.
