905 Miles - 8 days 4 hours

With 300 photos - I've broken them down into a couple of sections:

The Start at Land End and getting ready to go from Sennen

Signs and Markers - Reuben had a sign fettish (amongst other things) which meant stopping for most of the border and country signs so I've put them all on their own

The End at John O'Groats and our hasty retreat back South

The Big Bit in the Middle - The 905 miles in the middle!

The Sunny Bank Hotel - Sennen and we all assemble bodies and Bikes..
