Yesterday I was too busy to post, but I did manage to book my train to Penzance for the start, £16, bargain. I also booked a train for Beth to York for £9, an even bigger bargain. Beth and Imogen are going up to York the day before I finish to meet up with her sister and husband. the four of them are then planning to drive up to Inverness on 15th to meet me at the end of the ride for celebratory drinks & food! I'm kind of assuming not much in the way of alcohol will pass my lips during the ride duration so it might be a marathon session to end on! Beth's parents are also planning on being there. I guess they were all directly touched by Tom's death, which is part of my inspiration for this ride and the charity raising (http://www.justgiving.com/craigmorrisfsid) so they all seem to be enthused by my efforts. I just hope I can do them justice. They've all been a magnificent support so far. Anyhow Beth and I are planning a couple of days in Inverness when I finish (perhaps we'll visit the site of the Battle of Culloden, I could start a collection of battlefields I have visited!) and I managed to book Ryanair flights back to East Midlands for the three of us (Mo too) for a penny each. Sadly I had to pay £15.50 for my bike!
Any volunteers to pick us up at the airport? I rode past that way today and don't fancy it again!
