Lands End to John O'Groats in 10 Days

About Us

Gordon Hood, Neil Steedman & Robin Watt
Edinburgh and London, United Kingdom
We are cycling from Lands End to John O'Groats in 10 days during May 2009. The ride is approximately 1000 miles! We are raising money for the Edinburgh Headway Group, a charity dedicated to supporting people who have suffered traumatic head injuries and certain other forms of acquired brain injury together with their families and carers.
