"UK End 2 End delivers the perfect ride....... ideal sized group of 300 riders"
I guess it all depends on one's definition of the perfect ride and an ideal sized group.
Over 100 miles a day for nine days on the trot with 300 other people is not mine. Or have I misunderstood. But I'm just a cantankerous old cow, and stomped off in a temper on my one attempt at LEJOG. My companion (boyfriend at the time) didn't want to include an impromptu tour of Cumbria en route to Scotland. I was 17 and we had all summer to do it- looking at the maps as we headed northwards, I thought it looked like an amazing area- I had never been there before. I thought it looked easy to include it on the way northwards, but he just wanted to crack on as fast as possible. Cue a big row and on the road split up. I headed to the Lake District, alone, and spent two weeks there, before heading up to Scotland, myself. I never completed the JOG bit as I was distracted by climbing and camping in the Mamores, with another group of friends. And I have never felt any desire since to do that particular E2E, although I have done others.
Good luck, though, I'm sure for those that enjoy this style of riding, it's a great way of doing it.
