I finally had the time at the weekend to create the poster for this JOGLE ride, which you are all welcome to download, print off, and stick up wherever you can! It prints best on a laser printer because of the large amounts of colour: JOGLE poster! There is also a form should you want to collect cash from people instead of just directing them to the website where they can donate: JOGLE form.

I have also been working on the route in more detail (well overdue). A friend pointed me to this GREAT website called www.bikehike.co.uk which ties up google maps and OS maps and also gives elevation data! You can draw the route, download it, upload it, and the file formats are understood by Everytrail, so I wont have to use their create-map function again!

Big changes to the route are avoiding the A9 stretch from John O’Groats and instead going west to the Kyle of Tongue then south. This should be much better, although longer. Also, we have made a major decision to not go through Wales and instead go through more of the West Country as this is where we both grew up, so it will be good to visit friends and family on the way.

The whole route length is likely to increase by around 50 miles as a result, but I am definitely still aiming for the 12 day mark.
