Update 30th July - WE DID IT !!!

Well we did it - all 905 miles of it completed on Saturday 28th July.

We pulled into John O'Groats at around 1:30pm while the weather did it's best to stop us reaching our goal. It rained, blew us back and generally made life wet, cold and miserable for the final 55 miles but we pushed on / up the final hills and onto the finish line and the North Sea views.

A fantastic trip with lots of highs / lows and stories to be recounted for many days/months and even years to come!! Thanks for all you support and for those promised donations to push us over the £5k mark.

Cheers - Jonathan
