Why not try and tie it with Kelso?

Leave Lands End early in week, aim to get to John O'Groats for Wed/Thurs, then trundle down to Kelso for Friday - where we can badger those at the rally to part with their hard earned dough for a good cause?

And you get a couple of day rest from riding before heading for home

That way it makes a trip into Scotchland worthwhile on two counts! Laughing

Smudge, I'm interested in taking some part in it but doubt I could do the whole thing. I work with your mate Adrian, so I'm sure he's told you what a killer our shifts are. I'll keep an eye on the arrangements and see where/if I can fit in, as the cause is a very worthy one.

Right I've left this for a little while as I've had other things to sort out @ home. What I would like to know now is, who is up for doing the full LEJOG with me?

I plan on leaving Lands End on a Friday and making it to John O Groats by the Sunday.

I will be looking at who can join us for bits of the journey later right now I just want to know who can commit to the whole thing. So only put your name down if you can commit to it all.

Please don't forget we need to be in Lands End on the Thursday and will not be back home until the Monday.

So who's up for it then?

Dates.. well I've been looking at the Rally calendar and April 17th start date (Friday) looks good, May is packed, June is Germany Cool

, July packed, August 14th as a start date looks good. However we can finalise dates amongst ourselves. One thought is to make it to the Bute rally (if confirmed) on the Saturday, just a thought.

I'd love to do it, be good to finally meet the GTS owners club! August could be tricky what with having to take holidays then cause of the kids school times.

Assuming most of you are around Norfolk I'm a further 3 1/2 hours down the road.

The current Mrs. Lodge has also reminded me that we're not around on those April dates either Rolling Eyes

There's always one eh? Confused

The thing is where ever you live you have to do Lejog twice...

Home to LE

LE to JoG

JoG to Home

It's not like any of us are Ewan McBoorman and can get someone to drive the scooters to the start line for us in the back of a van while we take a flight / train...

No takers for this? I'm happy to do it whenever it suits the majority, could be a top laugh and in aid of a great cause.
