Too tried to walk or ride into town we settled for an off the shelf pasta meal & rice pudding out of a can.
Day 2 made me realise this will be no picnic.
In June 2011 I will bike over 2000km's unsupported from John O'Groats to Lands End UK ! My motivation is simple i.e. 1) To undertake a life challenge that is physically and spiritually rewarding 2) Raise funds to help 2 worthy local OZ causes - Painting with Parkinsons & a local 10 year old girl with Autism named Maleah 3) Promote awareness and support for Parkinsons UK ! Any support is greatly welcomed. I hope my journey inspires others !

Day 2 - Castle Hill to Tongue
So much for the easy start. Day 2 again in fine weather saw as climbing & descending over the 90km journey. Plenty of spectacular views of the Scottish coastline although with steep climbs my main view was of my front tyre.
With water & energy levels low we searched without luck for a hotel or the like & had to eventually settle for a cup of tea & a couple of strawberries to get through our 7 hour ride.With little energy left we coasted down hill to the town of Tongue, spending the night in a beautiful situated youth hostel.
