Hello!
Last Saturday I finished my unsupported LEJOG, which I integrated with a tour from my house in the Scottish Borders to Manorbier, Wales.
It was such an amazing time! I did it in 10 days, and saw some amazing bits of the country. I'm tempted to do it again! Though am going to go for more of a holiday option next time (this one was moderately intense because I had a time limit!).
My Thorn Nomad was brilliant - no maintenance issue at all: in 1500 miles of cycling, I didn't get a single puncture! Let alone something worse.
I'm now looking forward to a cycle tour somewhere else sometime (hoping not to wait until next summer!).
Whilst I know hundreds of us here did our LEJOGs for various reasons, some to raise money, others not - I did try raising money for charity, though that was not the actual reason for my doing it (I just thought, why not?). So if you fancy checking out my Just Giving page, see my signature below, though I don't want to upset anyone by plugging on this site (which I know isn't for that purpose).
All best! pkeenan
