Steve and I continued to cycle the route we had plotted at the weekend for several more weeks and in the meantime I have also been doing what planning I can gathering maps, writing down extra directions and booking a few campsites. We have also decided to spoil ourselves and on the 6th day after hopefully covering 215 miles we are booked in to a b&b on a farm for the night. A real bed with a real pillow, luxury.
Amongst my planning I found that my sat nav is able to report my longitude and latitude. I then found out that using google maps you can specify a longitude and latitude rather than a postcode or road name. Having a look at the link that is created when you search for a longitude and latitude with some friends we were able to understand what we needed to write to create a weblink that would take someone to google maps and straight to a longitude and latitude. For example I can write a link for people to follow and send them straight to Land's End.
