Tomorrow! Blimey, we leave tomorrow!!!
So, the bike’s been cleaned and the bags are packed. Everything I need is in the front room, ready to be loaded into the van. I don’t know how I expected to feel but it’s an amalgamation of nervousness, excitement and trepidation.
I’m now realising that the hardest bit of all this might just be getting everyone to John O’Groats in the first place. I hope it all fits in the van!
5 people, 5 bikes, 5 tents, 5 blow-up mattresses, 5 sleeping bags, 5 chairs, 5 bags of clothes, cooking equipment, bike tools and bike spares. If we don't have enough room, I don't suppose there will be a shortage of volunteers to drop out!!!
I’d like to say a massive “thank you” to everyone that has donated. We are so close to our £10,000 target it’s incredible (£273.60 to go at the time of writing). Hopefully we’ll reach the target before we start pedalling.
I’d also like to say a big thank you to all of our family and friends. Your encouragement really does make a difference so please text, email or facebook us. We will have time to read messages in the evenings and knowing that people are actually following our progress might motivate us into getting out of our tents and carrying on the next day.
Wish us luck… We need it!
Come back soon to www.5blokes-end2end.weebly.com and please donate as much as you can at www.justgiving.com/5blokes-end2end
All the best,
Nathan
