End July Im going to do LEJOG, planning to try and do it in 10days. In a few weeks time im going to purchasing my machine however its not a road bike its very much a fast XC machine, thats my usual style of riding, the bike purchased will either be a 'Marin Eldridge Grade' or a 'Gary Fisher Big Sur'.
1st Question, I dont think either of the bikes im looking at have pannier fitments, are there universal fitments or universal pannier racks on the market that can ensure good attachement to any style of bike and suspension fork?
2nd question, Has anyone got any tips or route ideas or just just general advice on doing LEJOG, im going to try and do it top to bottom but again im not sure on the logistics of this ... any advice or ideas or just general knowledge on LEJOG would be awesomely appreciated.
Thanks
JD
