Im thinking of doing the North sea route ( http://www.northsea-cycle.com/default.asp?id=2&mnu=2&lang=1 ) next summer and wonder if anyone had any experience doing it. I am only planning to do Ipswich to Aberdeen. How long do you think that would take?

simply depends on how far you wanna cycle each day. I did LeJoG last summer (geared), planned 10 x 100mile days but ended up doin it in 7.5 days.........two days in a row I'd sorted my 100 by 2pm....so just kept riding until 5 or 6pm.
Ipswich to Aberdeen = approx 600miles(?) = approx 6 days (but maybe 4.5 - 5, weather/muscles dependant). Glad you brought my attetion to the route.....I'm itching for a new challenge and quite fancy goin fixed.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
