Oh dear it’s fast looking like the JOGLE 2011 cycle, planned for August may be off, due to lots of people saying due to having no money, so they can’t do it I will post more when I know for sure…
I am now testing GPS tracking, which is something I would have loved to have done last year, but I did not have the correct mobile phone for doing it. I do know when doing the cycle, it should work most of the time, other then when in the Highlands of Scotland, when your very lucky to get a network, well with Orange anyway.
Below are just some of the lads hoping to do the End2End cycle in 2011. Since the cycle is still a good while, away I am sure that some of them will pull put before that.
We’re also starting to look for new sponsors. Here are some of the reasons you may want to sponsor us:-
Your company name and/or logo will go on this website.
It will go on our cycling jerseys which will wear every day, while doing the End2End cycle.
It’s a good way, to get your name in local new papers.

I had so much fun doing the End to End cycle in August 2009. I have started to planning to do the cycle again, this time for 2011. Yes I know that 2011 is a good while away, but it will give me lots of time to save up money again for it. Also this time, going to get a big group of us going it.
So far at least 4 other people have said they are up for doing it . They are people that I work with at the Peterborough Greyhound Stadium. How they will be with so many of us wanting to take the time off, all at once I have no idea.
Now I really can’t wait for the summer of 2011. Just hope I have better weather this time!
I often get asked just how much the End to End cycle cost me. Here is total cost…. it was… wait for it…. £1,667.85. This does not include the food, which I have still to work out. The cost could have been much less, if I had not got a new bike for the cycle, which set me back £549.99. I also got a GPS for the £323.99, which I could have done the cycle without it, just made things easier since I did not have to get out paper maps all the time.
Also lots of the items below are one off costs. The bike, should do me for at least 5 to 10 years. The GPS, also gets used all the time. So next time, I do the End to End cycle, means I will only really have to spend money on accommodation and food.
Below is a list of the things I got for doing the End to End cycle and how much they cost.
The YHA Chester has now closed. So when planning your End to End cycle please bear this in mind. It’s very sad news, I really enjoyed my stay there, last year while doing the End2End cycle.
