  1. The panniers are packed,the low riders are fitted, the triple chainset is
    fitted and the chain is lubed. Tomorrow I am setting out on my Morley - John
    O'Groats - Inverness ride. I estimate approx 600 miles in 8 days. Expect no
    messages from me for at least 8 days, I hope to meet with Jon Senior on
    Friday so he'll probably comment on my progress.

    activities for the next two weeks!

    Good luck. I hope the weather holds off, or at least the prevailing wind
    is with you. 🙂

    Have fun, should be a good ride - I'm stuck spendiing a lot of my
    summer catching up on the list of diy jobs for when we sell the house.

    Could really do with a good long ride.

    Bah. I've had 3 punctures since you wrote that, after having only one
    in the previous 3 months.
