Jill and I are going to ride our mountain bikes from the North of the UK to the Southern tip.
We have spent the last 12 months planning a route and finding suitable B&B's en route.
We will be unsupported, so have to carry all our own gear. The route is 1143 miles long and we plan to ride for 23 days, but we will have a day off after every six days of riding.
Why? In memory of my dear Mum Patsy Marten. She died in 1990 from Cancer. We are raising money for Macmillan Cancer Support.
