I shall be attempting Lands End to John O'Groats and back again in three days, yes I did say three days! This is my only planned charity ride prior to the 2009 Bike Rally which we will be holding in July 2009.
I shall be setting off from Lands End at 1830 hours on the 18 June 2009 and will return on the 21 June 2009 at 1830 hours.
My support team will consist of Dougie Fry, support vehicle driver and motorcycle technician and Ian Punchard, who will be acting as cameraman.
We plan to run a very short diary for the duration of the ride which will be posted on this website.
