John O’Groats to Lands End sponsored motorcycle ride within 24 hours. What a hoot, what an adventure, what a sore arse I’ve got!
Yes, we completed the journey in 17hrs, setting off from John O’Groats at 3.30am and arriving at Lands End at 8.30pm. That’s a total of 874.2 miles according to my GPS.
Not only did we hit our target of £3000 for Breast Cancer Support groups, but we doubled it!!!!! How bloody marvellous is that?!?!
As an added bonus no-one fell off or crashed, ran out of petrol, got lost or otherwise.
I spent some quality time with a bunch of Lords for a cause that needs supporting.
So……
John Webster, Karen Webster, Michael Darby, Nick Corney, Martin Dartmouth, Howard Dixon, Tim Goodman, and not forgetting the organiser and run leader Rex Hawkes (aka The Marathon Man)
I remember once imagining what my life would be like, what I'd be like.
I pictured having all these qualities, strong positive qualities that people could pick up on from across the room. But as time passed, few ever became any qualities that I actually had.
And all the possibilities I faced and the sorts of people I could be, all of them got reduced every year to fewer and fewer. Until finally they got reduced to one, to who I am.
And that's who I am.
