All being well this time next week we should be just arriving in John o’Groats in preparation for our JOGLE Grand Depart on the morning of Saturday 13th June. Ahead will be nearly 1000 miles of cycling.

In the meantime we are busy making final preparations. There;s getting the bikes ready, arranging picking up the van, making our packing lists, purchasing some of the food in advance …and even getting in a few last minute training rides.

Sadly our JOGLE cycling team is now down to four following Sarah’s unfortunate broken foot incident. She will still be joining and supporting us, and even bringing her bike. All being well we are hoping that she recovers sufficiently that she may be able to do some cycling in the second week. Not being able to cycle the JOGLE after all the planning and preparation is a crushing blow for Sarah so it would be wonderful if she feels confident enough to join us in a little bit of cycling towards the end of the tour …we shall see.

Our support team will now therefore be Nicholl and Sarah.

Anyway, our JOGLE cycle team are:

And our support team are:

We will be leaving for John o’Groats early on the Friday morning. It will be a long drive! We then begin cycling on Saturday 13th June. Ahead will be fifteen days of cycling plus a rest day at Grasmere. We will reach Land’s End on Sunday 28th June. You can view full details of our schedule here: JOGLE Itinerary.

We will be writing about our exploits each day, so don’t forget to check back to this website regularly.

It promises to be quite an adventure for all of us. So the planning is done let’s get on with the cycling! 🙂
