FFS of course they'll pass near your house...... its the only decent piece of tarmac on the way out from lands end

i'm planning a much easier version of the LE-JOG ride... my age & knees simply limit me.. i'm planning Lane End (near high wycombe) to John o'Gaunt (near oakham) its about 90 miles...

Nick, 1 p a mile is better than nothing mate.

No idea on route yet, waiting for the information to turn up.

I did an 85 mile bikeride to Skegness and I thought that was mega lol Good luck on your journey how long will it take you? Edit: 9 days at 100 miles a day that's crazy!

[Rickardo]

According to the info, it will be approx 115 mile a day. :eek:

It is a 9 day ride, i bet by day 4 my legs will feel slightly second hand.

We get 3 meals a day and sleep in a tent.

Cheers Dan.

The stabilizers are definately coming off for this.

I reckon it will be exciting, challenging and rewarding all at the same time.
