LEJOG DONE! So yesterday we finished. I don't think it has really sunk in yet but it still feels great. We decided to finish 2 days early in the end after seeing just how close we were. Still the last day was far from easy with 80+ miles still to go and Tom feeling sick (this time not in a good way!)
Total milage in the end was 1060 taking in Exmoor, The Peak District, The Yorkshire Dales and the Pennines along the way. 70hrs hours of peddling. 380,000 revolutions of the pedals and 0 punctures. Estimated average speed of 15mph.
At the hostel, the lady running the place decided that to help us celebrate she would drop us off and pick us up from the pub with two other fellow LEJOGers that had just finished. Big shout out to Mark and Adam from London and the hostel lady.
Now just on the train back to Inverness to get a flight back tomorrow to Bristol. For all of those who have donated already thank you so much all the money. It is going to a great cause. For those who still want to donate then you still can at the following link. Still a little short of my target and every little helps :-)

Looking forward to returning to Bristol and seeing everyone in the near future :-)

Liam Dude, you look f***ing terrible in that cycling gear. No wonder your mate was feeling sick!
