Right, Land's End to John O'Groats is a bit ambitious for a first bike trek. Having spent some time browsing maps from places such as sustrans, the organisers of the NCN (National Cycle Network), I found that there were a couple of NCN routes that link together to cover almost the full length of the west country.
The West Country Way goes from Bristol to Padstow and The Cornish Way links Bude to Land's End. Between these 2 routes it would be possible to get all the way from Bristol to Land's End sticking to NCN routes. The 2 routes linked together looked like they would provide approximately a 340mile route. With some training and planning I may just be able to cover that distance in my planned weeks holiday. Now to find someone foolish enough to join me as a cycling buddy on this endeavour.
