very tough day today started out in the wet for 50 miles which included a 1000m climb up Glencoe - eventually saw some scenery once the rain cleared and then the wind started but we continued on for what was supposed to be 111 miles but ended up an extra 10 longer due to a traffic diversion. we arrived in Glasgow in the sun and after 9 and a half hours in the saddle had a very well deserved massage and a glass of wine with our meal - quite a treat :-) we basically went through a washer drier today on a cold wash. Now off to bed!
Andrew (Gybe), Jason and Jeroen are challenging themselves and mid-life to the max by cycling from John O'Groats to Land's End from 11th June to 20th June. ( http://www.rideacrossbritain.com/) A grueling 1000 miles over nine days, there will be no soft beds with en-suites to nurse aching muscles but sleeping bags and canvas!
