We have spent the best part of a year planning our route and accommodation and wanted to do the ride unsupported, meaning we will be carrying all our own kit. We are hoping the weather improves a little and are looking forward to seeing the country from the quieter side traveling on scenic routes crossing into Wales on the old Severn bridge and heading through the Scottish Grampians hopefully arriving in John O Groats on Wednesday 13th September.
You will be able to follow our progress on Claire Moyle’s link as we will be doing a daily blog.
Claire, Carol, and Linda
