Hi Badge,
Well, you got there! Well done to you all. I sent you a text earlier but there probably isn't a signal where you are.
No doubt you are celebrating this tremendous achievement. Enjoy!
Safe journey home tomorrow.
See you soon.

Last Breakfast
by Lance Armstrong to support the Radio Shack team ;-). Needless to
say he's been a bit like the 5th Beatle for us and we will miss him.
And now we're off!

Near Invergordon..tomorrow, Jphn O'Groats
So today started out really boring. A screw up with the hotel the night before meant we had to change hotels and got a late start. We were all really tired as we rode along the A82 for a second straight day. Suddenly we started getting passed by a few motorcycles with funny pink things all over their helmets...then a few more...then a few more. There must have been about 50 of them! They were without question one of the highlights of the day and really kept us going in the morning. So for all of them, here's a little more information about the amazing work being done by the Breast Way Round motorcycle club! http://www.breastwayround.com/
We also stopped at a great coffee shop along the way run by a lovely woman from Yorkshire. Then Barry had a puncture and another LEJOG (Land's End John O'Groats) cyclist dropped by who was doing the whole thing on his own in 7 days! SERIOUSLY IMPRESSIVE! There was one really tough climb today which is unfortunately the first climb that Barry had to get out of the big ring on his bike in the entire trip!
We ended the night in the Balintrade Inn near Invergordon where Paul's wife and Alex's girlfriend have joined us for the final day. We also bid farewell to Cedric and thank him for such great support throughout! We have 95 miles to go and two tough-looking climbs but tomorrow night it's John O'Groat's or Bust!
