Why?

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.

Day 14.........


Change of plan today, planned B&B let us down late last night. Rerouted, direct to Perth and on to Blairgowrie. turned out to be a good decision. Cut 22 miles off the ride. Followed tourist route to Perth, lots of down hill and not many up hill.

Good B&B in Blairgowrie, collected £25.00 of donations in Perth, thank you to the two gentlemen in Perth for their generosity.

Had a half day, arrived in Blairgowrie at 3 o'clock. 44 miles at 11.1mph, a new course record!! Tomorrow will be SLOW!
