A bicycle journey by Edward Peters, May 14-28, 2002

I cycled 1,021 miles from one end of Britain to the other, in May 2002, to raise funds for two projects in South Africa. The ride, from Land's End to John O'Groats, took 15 days. I travelled alone most of the time and used a hybridised Dawes Galaxy touring bike.

This site is dedicated to information about this venture. You can read about the South African charities I supported, and our visit to them in July and August 2002. If you are a cycling enthusiast you can read details about my route, equipment, planning etc.

You can also read a daily diary and see photos.

I very much appreciate the 138 donations, from more than 250 people, which made it possible to reach my £5,000 target. All of this money will go to the charities, as I funded the journey myself.

Thanks for your interest!

Edward
