Well after that impressive post title the rest of the post is a bit dull - Sorry!

Hitting the road from Sheffield in the morning and just going until it gets dark!

I know I can do sheffield to pitlochry in about 6 hours (about 340 miles), so not sure whether to split the journey up into two or just go for a long long day and do a oner!

So probably just gonna make it all up as I go along!

Ill keep an eye out for any ABR stickers as I head north, but not heard any rumblings of any other yorkshire based folk setting off tomorrow.

Just packed everything as well.
Strap it all on in the morning. Then off I go.

Surely I'm not the only one who feels like a little kid at Xmas :-)))


Bring it on !!!

Enjoy folks... we will be starting our unfortunately bike free journey to Mallorca early on Saturday in the big silver bird after a short taxi ride to East Mids ... weather will be terrible apparently, only six days of the eight will be in full sunshine :D
