LEJOG 2013

[Cully22]

Me and a friend have signed up for the June 10 day trip.
We booked it on a Sunday and Carl got back to us straight away, he did say that due to the popularity they're extending the group from 8 to 14 people on a couple of the trips.
Just need to put in all the training now, looking forward to it though.............( I think).

Hi, Thanks for your post and advise!
It's an organised trip over 10 days of cycling. The company I'm looking at is Great Bear Tours

Travelling down to Lands End

Hi Graham

Just wondered how you got on with Great Bear Tours? I have tried to find out any information on the company,reviews or gossip and I cannot find anything. I am interested in going with them but a bit wary because of the lack of info ! So I wondered how you got on and whether you knew more than I do about the company?
Thanks
Richard

I have done LEJOG and JOGLE but both times solo and unsupported. However you do it, it's a lovely ride and a great achievement. To be fair £800 sounds very reasonable (I probably spent about the same all in) and will undoubtedly reduce much of the stress and hassle of finding accomodation and of course not having to carry all your own stuff.

Go For It!

I know someone who's using them for LEJOG next month, so I will know more after then.

A colleague of mine has recently completed his LEJOG with Great Bear Tours, as promised I said I'd get some feedback.
He said it was really good and he really enjoyed it, he really praised the whole trip and couldn't fault it. Hope this helps

Thanks again Graham
Looking more and more likely they will be the operator of choice if we go supported.

Cheers Paul
