Sam and Thom do John O' Groats to Land's End!

In this blog I will be documenting our progress on completing the end-to-end challenge. Thom and myself are cycling roughly 1000 miles from John O' Groats (top of the country) to Land's End (bottom of the country). The benefiting charity for this ride is Downham Special Needs School in Plymouth; you can check out what they do at http://www.downhamschool.co.uk/.
So far, Thom and myself have completed the route planning and equipment purchasing elements of preperation. We have also been training hard to prepare ourselves.
Currently, we are in the process of organising an itinerary of campsites and places to stay for the journey; we are also currently appealing for sponsorship.
At the time of writing, we are in the process of getting a justgiving web page, so that sponsorship can be completed over the Internet. In the meantime, informal pledges can be made over e-mail (sam.drew@bathspa.org) and paper forms are available if you are lucky enough to see us before we depart. There is also a Facebook group where informal pledges can be made, details of which will be on here soon.
Thanks for reading!
