why

in 2009 with the loss of so many friends and mum,i decided that time had come to realise a dream,cycling end to end,but at near on 20 stone everyone thought i was crazy,a visit to the doctors had welcomed results with the advise not to diet ,take the training steady and eat a sensible heathy diet,and get regular checks with them from time to time,

out on the bike it was murder on my rear too much weight pressing down on such a small area,

the answer A RECUMBENT TRIKE ! and boy was it welcome.because i want to enjoy it 50 mile a day has been planned(20ish days)i have decided the only way i could afford it was to cycle camp,rough and ready but cheap

due to the length of the trip it will also be solo and un assisted,told you i was crazy

saturday 14 may 2011.day 1 of jogle





All set for the off. We actually started at duncansby head, weather very windy and wet. Very wet






We had planned to include the most northerly point and southerly points much to kellies disgust




first day was a very tough 44 mile, average speed 7mph,as the day concluded a patch of heather was the best we could find to pitch tent in the shelter of gorse on the exposed moor
