The Route
For those who are interested in the detail, the following outlines the rough course Steve and Andy will follow over the seven days. Obviously we shall avoid motorways, but generally speaking, the plan is to work down the major A-roads from North to South which tends to run close-by the main M74 and M6 corridor.
Day 1 - Sunday - Glasgow to Douglas Water
Day 2 - Monday - Douglas Water to Beattock
Day 3 - Tuesday - Beattock to Gretna
Day 4 - Wednesday - Gretna to Southwaite
Day 5 - Thursday - Southwaite to Shap
Day 6 - Friday - Shap to Lancaster
Day 7 - Saturday - Lancaster to Blackpool
There are some gruelling stages in there, not least around Beattock and Shap, fingers crossed the unseasonally cold weather loosens it's grip in the next week or so!
