2 weeks to go

Post by Russcoles »

I have now worked out my route:
ok so the route plan so far:
17th May: Train to inverness
18th May: Train from inverness to Thurso, then cycle to john O Groats and down to Watten
19th May: Watten to Rogart
20th May: Rogart to Drumnadrochit
21st May: Drumnadrochit to Glencoe
22nd May: Glencoe to Lochranza on the Isle of Arran
23rd May: Lochranza to Brodick then ferry to Ardrossan and south to Newton Stewart
24th May: Newton Stewart to Carlisle
25th May: Carlisle to Arnside
26th May: Arnside to Liverpool
27th May: Liverpool to Ironbridge
28th May: Ironbridge to Stratford upon Avon, with a stop for a pint at the Royal Enfield pub in Redditch.
29th May: Stratford to Bristol

The last bit I will sort out after a rest at home in Bristol.
My bike choice keeps changing but now I have made all my accommodation bookings with this route in mind with a detour to go through Redditch, it seems I will be riding my Royal Enfield Revelation. I will have to do a few small modifications such as lowering the gear ratios, adding ergonomic grips, swapping the saddle to the broken in Brooks flyer from my Kingpin, alterring the handlebar position etc.
