Day 19 - Penzance to Lands End



After a leisurely breakfast we knocked off the final few miles to Lands End in just under an hour to arrive triumphant at 10.45 am.

WE HAD DONE IT.

1052 miles in total. John O Groats to Lands End was 1037 miles and we'd completed it at an average of just over 10 mph.

We spent a good couple of hours taking photo's, texting and making phonecalls, posting postcards, drinking coke and eating ice cream before taking a leisurely ride back to Penzance, elated and relieved.

  2. Excellent! You both did really well and sounded as though you enjoyed it - well, most of the time, anyway!

  4. Hi Trevor, I went through your blog following your comment on my thread on the CTC forum. I'll definitely keep the link for when I venture to this journey next year. You should keep blogging as I'm sure you have loads of routes and experiences to share. Well done to both of you. Funny enough, when I first arrived in UK about 5 years ago I went to live in Notts!
