Direction?

Hi,

My old friend Chris Jenkins who acted as MC at my 57th birthday party/Kenya fundraising do asked me why Lands End to John O'Groats and not the otherway round. Well according to another friend Christa (and she should know as an ex cycling author) its best to have the sun on your back and the prevailing winds tend to be from the South West. This makes sense to me as I got really sunburt on a trip in 1990 when I cycled around Dorset travelligh South to Glastonbury. The next day it rained and rained.

I am still firguring my route traying to balnce beauty of scenery, ease of travel, and how not to get lost. My friend Keith talks abaout SatNav on the bike...

Best to all,

William
