Job done!

Arrived at tower bridge at 3,45, scorching sunshine and a big smile. Thanks for those that followed my journey, will be back at my desk on Tuesday. Bye

Time for lunch, 55 miles in.

Final push to London

Day 4 on our.way to Cambridge

Looks like a hiccup with the map today but essentially it's 94 miles and arrived in Cambridge at quarter to four, sunshine and flat terrain, just what was needed. Tomorrow is going to be the hottest day of the year in London so should be a warm afternoon finish.

Day 4 on our way to Cambridge

Just arrived in Lincoln

Just got here, delights of a Premier Inn tonight, thankfully no Lenny Henry lying on the bed! Long day again today, has rained for most of it, a few scary A-roads to negotiate but apart from feeling a bit battered I can definitely say we are well over half way. By the way Lincoln isn't totally flat there a few hills!

Living it up in Lincolnshire

Day 3 onward to Lincoln

Sunny Yorkshire, not!

Big day today 113 miles, eaten so much sugar have gone past hyper, thanks for the texts enquiring about my behind, am pleased to tell you it's fine thanks. Nice text recommending the chippy in Kirkby Stephen unfortunately had already left. More rain expected tomorrow, well it is June and I"m cycling after all.

Kirkby Stephen

Just arrived at 11.20  in Kirkby Stephen had a bit of lunch, rain has caught us up now. Sixty four wet miles to go to Harrogate!

Day 3

Arrived in sunny Carlisle

and so it begins

When is a virgin not a virgin?

When it's Trans Penine! 

Although both my tickets were booked by Virgin it turns out Trans Penine go East Coast. Just my luck, Virgin in name only! However I managed to convince Virgin 1st class lounge man at Piccadilly Station to allow me tea and biscuits on the house. Coffee & biscuits for now, couple of beers and pasta later.

Tuesday 25th June
