Date change and travel plans

No posts for a few weeks then two at once, just like buses hey !!!!

Apart from the training the other thing we've been lacking is any form of organisation and planning. So Aaron is coming over this weekend and we're going to do some training and planning !!!

We've had to push the C2C ride back a week which is not such a bad thing at the moment.

We've also got our outbound travel sorted. We leave Huntingdon around midday on 15th September heading north by rail on the first of 4 trains we need to catch to get us to Whitehaven. We've got bike spaces reserved between Peterborough and Leeds. The others cannot be pre-booked so we're going to have to hope that there is room for both our bikes and luggage. Cycle policies for these say they will do their best to accommodate us. We'll see......

As we don't know how long the ride is going to take we're not booking any return travel. We can do this on route or play it by ear when we want to come back. Worst case scenario would be us hiring a small van in Sunderland and dropping it in Huntingdon when we get back.

So it's all starting to get real now!!!!!
