Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

Our very own Daman Ranby and Scott Green take to their bikes again for yet another incredible challenge.  This time they are planning to cycle 950 miles in 6 days as they travel from Land's End to John O'Groats to fundraise for Macmillan - our chosen charity for 2016.

Ever since the invention of the bicycle people have been inspired to ride the ‘End to End’. The first official time recorded over the distance was 65 days, 16 hours and 7 minutes, ridden on a penny farthing in 1880, and since then the route has been covered on everything from a bed to a motorised bar stool!!

There is no ‘official’ End to End route and thus no official distance. There are various published guides – they all vary in the route they take, but most make the distance around 1,000 miles. Most trips start from Land’s End, the main reason being that the prevailing winds in the UK are usually from the south-west, and so if you are lucky you could have a tail wind all the way to Scotland; although this distinction is not clear-cut and there are other arguments for choosing the other direction.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
