Of course this could all change by the time I actually do it, but I think its a good route, with most sections looking managable. There's a long day on the penultimate leg, but I think that's manageable - it shouldn't be too up and down!
I also need to get the school holiday dates confirmed but if I need to shift the timetable a day or two backwards, that shouldn't be a problem.
And . . .
A BIG thank you to all the people who have already donated to the website. We already have 12% of our target raised, and we've only been going a week. Thanks you so much you know who you are!
Keep checking back to see whats happening.
Cheers
