Jog to Le

[Jaz66]

Right..being very cheeky and stuck this in here when it's not really an NTV trip....

I kept a bit quiet about this until i knew it was as close to a go as possible.

Couple of chaps on the Rf site suggested places to go this year and someone mentioned John O'groats to lands End as something they have always wanted to do and a light went on in my head saying ''Do It' .

So i got stuck in and we eventually whittled the group down to 4/5 after the economic reality and family life took it's toll.

Here is the proposed run

The RF crowd have an annual meet and this year its at scarbrorough, so as part of the run we have included friday night stopping over and having the run out with the group on saturday.

Hope to do it all in 6/7 days depending, so should be back home on the 7th of june.... ;D

Am looking forward to all the run but am particularly relishing the run from the lake district into scotland through fort william and along the banks of Loch Ness and onto Jog......

so there you go...the reason i can't afford to make some of the excellent destinations and runs/camping is cos i will be totally brassic for about 3 weeks after.....

roll on summer... ;D

Oooooh yesssss !

That is one trip that I would love to make !

Apart from the trip around the Lake district & Scotland, you'll also love the trip over Dartmoor.

I've got a cousin living there who's on the mountain rescue team. So in case you get rescued, make sure to ask if any of your rescuers know me

And near Postbridge there's a pub somewhere, that has had their fire going for some 200 years or something (or so they say...).
It would be cool to take an extinguisher with you and put out the fire ;D

Are you thinking of the Saltersgate Inn near Whitby?

Not far from where I live

[De Graaf van Salland]

No, not that one.
The pub I'm referring to is a little more south:
