I'm going to cycle the length of Great Britain for the third time.

This time, however, I am carrying some extra rind and I'm doing it unsupported. Some may remember the original Whole Hog when the Veal Deal (that's me) and Danepak Hillon beat vicious insects and sunburn, completing the journey within 10 days.

The second time round, Danepak was laid up in his camper van but helped to bring home the bacon. 

This time will sadly be just the Veal Deal, the road, a touring bike and crowds of <=6 cheering him (me) on. 

Do share with friends and colleagues, spare a fiver if you can, and if you live somewhere between: John O'Groats, Brora, Inverness, Fort William, Glasgow, Carlisle, Crosby, Leominster, Cheddar, Bodmin or Lands End, please bring cake!
