I am riding from Lands End to John O'Groats on a push bike starting next week. We are raising money for Macmillan Cancer Support in doing so. As four of us doing the ride work for Prodrive they have given us a tour of the factory for two people that we can auction off to raise some more money.

So if there are any motorsport fans out there that would like a tour of where the Subaru WRC cars and the Aston Martins are made, please take a look at the ebay auction.

And also please have a look at our website for the cycleride and you can see how we get on.



Thanks

Luke

Not very sunny swanage

hope the weather holds out for you, its a miserable ride if it rains lots!!!! trust me!!!

Also, i know changing the route now is probably a no-no but you should consider doing the lizard and duncansby head as well, meaning youve done south to north as well!!!

You all look a helluva lot fitter than me thats for sure......

And on the 7th day........... God created turbochargers!

Tour sounds cool. More impressive is riding all that way. I'd be pissed off if i had to drive it, let alone ride it!! Much respect!

Im sure youve done loads of research etc, but one piece of advice i would give you, is just to say that dont worry if you fall behind in the first two days, cornwall and devon is pretty torturous, it gets a LOT easier once you get up to bristol way and turn the corner and actually start heading north, and youll make up any ground very easily!!!

OH, and if you have to cycle through bristol be carefull the signposts are absolutely crap!!!! They keep sending all traffic toward the motorway!!!!

Good Luck!!!

And on the 7th day........... God created turbochargers!

I must say that the hills do look like killers for the first two days, i will be glad when we have crossed the severn bridge and start riding north....

And then when i have finished, the training can slow down and i can get on with finishing my engine!!!
