Default Pack & ready to go

The panniers are packed,the low riders are fitted, the triple chainset is
fitted and the chain is lubed. Tomorrow I am setting out on my Morley - John
O'Groats - Inverness ride. I estimate approx 600 miles in 8 days. Expect no
messages from me for at least 8 days, I hope to meet with Jon Senior on
Friday so he'll probably comment on my progress.

Have a fab time. May the puncture fairy be engaged in more southern
activities for the next two weeks!

Are you taking a camera? Jpgs on return please!

Have fun, should be a good ride - I'm stuck spendiing a lot of my
summer catching up on the list of diy jobs for when we sell the house.

Could really do with a good long ride.

Bah. I've had 3 punctures since you wrote that, after having only one
in the previous 3 months.
