1400km in five days on a cargo bike...
On Sunday at 1030 I start cycling and on Friday at 0730 I will stop- in between I hope to have covered 1400km and pedalled for 20 hours out of every 24hrs to Edinburgh and back (London Edinburgh London) on a cargo bike built by Harry vs Larry.
Based on a ride I did last Saturday I will be using 10,500 calories a day and cycling about 180-200 miles a day.
I am hoping to raise funds and awareness for a fantastic charity, Canine Partners, who train dogs to help people with disabilities. Their especially trained dogs can open doors, fetch items off shelves, empty the washing machine, remove socks from their owners feet as well as helping reduce isolation.
To follow my progress (tiredness and technology permitting) please take a look at my blog which is herehttps://

Many thanks and see you again in August where I might find walking (but definitely not sleeping) a little painful.
