That was a good read. You must be physically and mentally tough to face those long journeys by bike. I'm assuming you're in your 50s. Reminds me a little of Greenwich Blade and his hitchhiking adventures. Maybe you should consider a book. Especially as you are doing it for charity. More power to your (riding and writing) elbow.
Thanks for writing this, James; it’s fascinating and I’m in awe of all you’ve done / are doing.
But there’s exercise and then there’s exercise - you must be the fittest man in South Yorkshire! And all this to raise mental health awareness is a very fine thing.
Portsmouth – “The concourse and location of toilets are great if there are a few hundred away fans but not for over 2,000. Bonkers.” – I’ve been there twice and that is, sadly, my abiding memory of Fratton Park!
Very best wishes for your fundraising and countryside touring.
