You can email me at arroberts@onetel.com and I will email you the gpx files of the route and answer any questions you may have.

I have cycled from Lands End to John O`groats (typically known as LEJOG) in May 2010. This Blog will attempt to log my entire adventure from start to finish. I am raising money for the Essex Air Ambulance, a very good cause if I don’t mind saying so myself.
