Jogle - Oldest person to do LeJog goes the other way

[Skipper9999]

Yes you may have read last years report about Tony Rathbone aged 81 doing LeJog last year with myself and a camper van . Last years ride was well documented at Www.lejog.us
Well he's at it again and this time by himself and planning on 11 days.

I caught up him tonight ( 11 June 15 ) at Abington , 4days in and 324 miles and tomorrow he will finish the day in Shap and then Warrington , Bridgenorth , Bristol , Exeter , Boddmington and finally Lands End .

Very hot and the wind not right , but he just keeps going .

Good luck to him.

How did he get on?

Tony finished 19th June 2015 talking 11 days plus one rest day in the middle (so is that 12)
Tired he was , but pleased to have completed it 4 days faster than last year.

Is it true that its downhill that way round

Brilliant!

I have just revised my 'want to be still doing long rides at ...' age from 80 to 85!
