I'm challenging myself to cycle the distance (on a static bike) between John O'Groats to Land's End, which is 874 miles. I aim to do this over the course of 84 days, so it averages 10.4 miles a day.
If anyone would like to join in, by all means feel free to, I may even do more mileage on some days than others but will be posting my daily ride on here.
I've plotted it over that length of time due to having 2 children and my hubby is away for another 84 days give or take a few so it's kind of a countdown to my hubby coming home

    That's great! I'm not a cyclist, but I just popped in to say that a guy in the rowing group is rowing (static rower, obviously) between Land's End to John O' Groats. Sounds like a really fun idea :)

    Thank you CafeRacer808, it's nice to get positive comments, I would have loved a bigger challenge, but I might go bigger and bolder once hubby is back

    Not been on the bike for about a wk and a half, no real excuses, but trying to catch up, so did 17km yesterday, 8km this morning and 17km this evening. Haven't convert edit into miles yet, I know 5km =3m so.......17x2+8=42...........40km=24m & 2km=1.2m so 25 miles.

    Only 829.08 miles to go
