All about Gordon Valentine's John O'Groats to Land's End (JOGLE) cycle
We now have a Garmin Edge 705 GPS, which we got from Wiggle, which cost us £323.99. We went for the Garmin Edge 705 MTB Performance Package, which comes with GB mapping for OS/Road content for Great Britain and also a Heart rate monitor chest strap.

We have made up our minds, after doing the Peterborough to London cycle. We really need to get a good GPS. Before doing the John O’Groats to Lands End cycle. To stop us from getting lost. The one we’re hoping to get is the Garmin Bike Edge 705.
We did our third and longest training cycle so far. We decided to cycle from Peterborough to London. Watch our vlog, to see if we made it all the way…
We cycled from Gordon’s home, in Little Bytham to Rutland Water. We then cycled the long way around. Which is 23 miles. The shorter way, around it, is 17 miles. Just in case, you wanted to know. By the time, we had both cycled back to Gordon’s house. We had done, just over 42 miles. Which took us 3 hours and 43 minutes. Our average speed, was 11.2 mph.
We did our first long training cycle, to get ourselves ready for doing the End to End cycle next year.
We did a 58 mile cycle. The cycle took us from Mike’s house. In the Orton Malborne, area of Peterborough. To a village called, Swavesey, which is near to Cambridge. The cycle took us 4 hours, 43 minutes and 40 seconds. With an average speed of 12.4 mph. Going by the Cateye CC-CD300DW cycling computer on Gordon’s bike.
