Culloden House, Inverness to John O’Groats – staying at Forss House (103 miles)

Image
  13th May 2022   We’ve FINISHED!!!  Our route lunged into the heart of the highlands along desolate single track roads, loads of yellow gorse and tiny lambs - it’s definitely spring time! A quick pause to see the salmon leap at Falls of Shin then a beautiful long lochside cycle.  After reaching the spectacular north coast at Bettyhill, we had a final sprint towards John O’Groats.  The final landscape, a rugged coastline studded with the distant islands of the Orkneys, felt like a world away from Cornwall, where our grand adventure began! Happy birthday, Stegsy! We’ve loved this entire journey together from the very start.  Our trusty guide, Kev  Falls of Shin - salmon leap Arriving at the north coast of Scotland  Soup and yummy sandwiches at  The Store Cafe John O’Groats We did it!

Shrewbury to the Northcote Manor, Clitheroe (95 miles)

Image
8th May 2022 As we approach the industrial heartlands of Manchester, Liverpool and Preston, it begins to get more built-up but we enjoy a route on minor roads before arriving at the Northcote Manor. We have at last reached halfway! Shropshire is the pothole centre of the world 😳. The views have been diverse - ranging from shocking to magnificent - the arduous last long climb was rewarded with spectacular scenery. Coffee and lunch stops have been a welcome break. Thank God for Neen and Paulo ♥️♥️. We say a sad goodbye to Andrew and Tors, Dave and Jane… but welcome Steven and Victoria. They have no idea what they are in for! Pete looking like a boy racer on a Cube. Leaving Fawlty Towers this morning First welcome coffee stop!  Warm welcome to Pop meeting us for lunch 💕 One team, one dream.  Welcome drinks at Northcote, Clitheroe  Past halfway!

5 th   May 2022 After an amazing breakfast at Gidleigh Park, we set off on our second longest day! Almost 11 hours on our bikes, covering 162km!!  One of the day’s highlights was passing through the Mendip Hills AONB, a limestone landscape of steep hills, undulating plateaus and grasslands exploding with a rainbow palette of wildflowers.  Cheddar Gorge was breathtaking and pretty steep ..! We went from Devon to Somerset we are ticking off the counties!!!  Tonight we welcome Tors & Andrew to our happy peloton! Tomorrow is “only” 89km, we can’t wait!!!! Leaving Gidleigh Park Along the canal in Bridgewater Cycling up Cheddar Gorge Living the dream! Another climb 🙈 One day at a time 👍🏻
