Sunday 8th September We were pretty impressed with ourselves managing to sleep through from 9pm to 6am having expected worse with jetlag! We got up and ready and packed our suitcases up as we were checking out of our current Airbnb to move to a new one for our remaining 3 nights in Vancouver, closer…

Saturday 7th September Our alarms went off at 5:30am to get the last bits ready for our taxi to take us to the airport at 6:30am. We arrived at Heathrow just after 7am and had already managed to check in – with lovely business class seats thanks to Dad! We dropped off our luggage which…

Hello again to all you blog fans out there! While we embark on our 12 hour drive in Boris back home, we thought we’d put together a summary blog. We’d like to start by saying a huge thank you to everyone who followed and supported us on this adventure, whether that be supportive/motivational texts and…

We woke up early due to going to bed so early last night. We got everything packed up in the Airbnb and got ready. We jumped into Boris and Tina drove Harry and I 5 minutes into Thurso for park run at 9:30am. It was a small park run of 85 people and Harry was…

We woke up to our 7am alarm in the cosy cabin in Lairg after one of the best nights sleep we had had most of the trip! We got up, had brekky and got ready for an early leave with 120km ahead of us to cycle. We headed out just after 8am (Beth now with…

We woke up at Sarah and Tom’s, got ready, had some breakfast and then packed up and got in Boris with Tina to drive back to where we finished the route early yesterday near Dores by Loch Ness. The drive took an hour and a half and Sarah and Tom were off work so also…

Hello everyone, it’s Harry again for the last of my ‘solo’ blogs. Full marks for those who were expecting this and have worked out I do every third blog. Give yourself a Pat on the back. With just 3 days to go our undercarriages continue to perform dutifully and Beth is nature weeing like a…

After the slightly negative end to the day yesterday, we got back on the bikes early and headed to the exact spot of the puncture to continue our ride from there. After some choice words for the bump in the path Harry ran into, we finished what should have been yesterdays ride and cracked on.…

We got up early to get ready, have breakfast, pack up and set off on an early start for a long ride today. Tina strapped up my knee to protect it on the ride today… I’m pleased to say spirits were higher today! The start of our ride was a 20km drag uphill, so we…

Spoiler alert – WE MADE IT TO SCOTLAND!!!! Undercarriage update: skin care routine continues to perform well. Areas remain tender. Beth’s nature wee count: 6 and getting more brazen by the day. Today’s was literally on the side of a road with only my large frame and 2 bikes for shelter. You’ve probably guessed it…
