Thinking about it, he was also filmed in Preston so definitely not right.
That's good as it would be crazy to use that route on a record attempt. But a bit odd to post a route that he didn't do...

If he had no tracker did he even record his route? It might be that was the first image they could find on a search for a lejog route.

Very very strange, but I'm 95% sure that's a map I drew of my LEJOG route a few years back. I say that because I took an odd route (wanted to ride Cheddar Gorge, dipping across to Sheffield to ride the peaks and see a mate, Glencoe etc...) plus that yellow star in the Lake District is on Eskdale and is one I always have on my google maps (not sure why, must have reviewed/rated it or something)... I guess they googled LEJOG route map and that came up, but I don't remember putting it online somewhere and if I did it would only have been on here...

That's not his route... or at least not all of it. He went through Milnathort and Perth (as reported on FB). Outbound is quoted at 1350km in the article, which is pretty direct.
