Story
Hey hey.
So we decided to take the cycling thing to the next level. Rather than doing something boring like John O'Groats to Lands End we have decided to climb Ben Nevis in Scotland, cycle down to the peak district and climb Scafel Pike then off to Snowdonia in Wales and clim mt. Snowden before heading back to Eastington for one or two celebratory beverages.
Current Itinary:
sunday 26th - travel and hostel
Monday 27th - Ben Nevis - taking about 8 hours or so round journey to climb mountain and staying in a hostel that evening

No accomodation sorted yet so in true biking for bestie style we're gonna wing it!
Current target lies at 2 grand but we are hoping to push it above and beyond so if we manage to break it we promise to do a happy litte (topless) dance on top of each mountain!
So dig deep and push us off!
