Al Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 Hi everyone, I normally do an event for Charity each year. 2007 was my first Triathlon. 2008 cycled France top2bottom. This year i decided to have a year off, but over the last few months I have been thinking of a decent challenge for 2010. I have kinda decided on trying to cycle from Cape Wrath (top West) down to Gretna, but do it in 48hours. Mileage is looking around the 450+ mark. This is obviously in the very early stages of organising. I haven't decided dates, logistics, etc. A couple of questions/thoughts have sprung to mind and I'm seeking the wisedom of the JW. 1. Is this possible or am I just dreaming that this could be done. 2. If 1 is yes, does anyone care to join me 3. If 1 is yes, does anyone care to help with the support/backup 4. Anything got any other comments/advice that might help, etc. Big thanks, Al. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lancelogan Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 Anythings possible!! Read mind over matter by Ranulph Fiennes and find out. I love a challenge and would love to do it but im nowhere near fit enough (yet). If i dont accompany you i'll help in any way i can. I have in laws up on the north coast too which may be a help.

a.yeoman Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 north to south looking at the map its all downhill must be possible - have a talk to iron man he has a fair bit of experience at long runs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Committee Alan McLean Posted August 21, 2009 Committee Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 Nice idea. South to north would give you a higher chance of a tailwind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
