  We are aiming at 10 days. I wanted to do the Youth Hostel and am still working on my co-rider to go down that route.

  I am 5ft 10ins

  I am going with 1 other person and in the last week of May. We are thinking of camping but the other person is planning those bits. I am tasked with getting my own bike and the sponsorship.

  I really don't want to try it on a mountain bike and having tasted road bikes I need to source a proper bike!

  Road Bike

  I am about to complete a Lands End to John O'Groats ride for Diabetes UK and only have a mountain bike to do it on. As you forumites will know that is not good as the gearing, seating, suspension etc is going to make this a very long ride.

  I am either looking to loan or buy a road bike but I am limited on how much I can spend as the money I use for the bike will have to be deducted from what I manage to donate to the charity.

  I am happy to collect from anywhere in the country and if it is a loan then I would ideally need it from as soon as possible until the middle of June.

  Any advice about the route, where to stay, what to take etc would be greatly appreciated.

  Thanks

  Mike

  Hi

  I am 5ft 10'ish with an inside leg of 31ins

  Is there a bike hire shop list or is it a case of searching the net?

  I am about to complete the Lands End to John O'Groats bike ride for the Diabetes UK charity. Any advice, information, equipment loan and/or donations would be greatly received.

  I only have a mountain bike to do it on at the moment and am desperately looking for a road bike to use. As you forumites will know a mountain bike is not ideal as the gearing, seating, suspension etc is going to make this a very long ride.

  I am either looking to loan or buy a road bike but I am limited on how much I can spend as the money I use for the bike will have to be deducted from what I manage to donate to the charity. Again any help would be hugely appreciated.

  If I manage to get a loan then I would ideally need it from as soon as possible until the middle of June.

  Please feel free to post advice about the route, where to stay, what to take etc.

  Thanks

  Mike
