Flatlander 19 May 10:45am, 19 May 2024 3,234 posts	0 Flatlander I passed through CP8 of the Bike Challenge this morning. Just over 300 miles to go, hopefully I'll finish in 2 more weeks. In the run/walk, I'm staying a little bit ahead of Darwin and I suspect I'll finish only a few days ahead of the dragon at the end of October.

Joe1970 20 May 7:07pm, 20 May 2024 147 posts	0 Joe1970 Southerner here...I've got as far as Yorkshire on the walk/run, and it's all sweeping views and dry stone walls and the occasional remote house whenever I've parked up recently. Looks like an absolutely beautiful part of the world. Having very rarely ventured north of Watford, I'm a bit disappointed in myself for not having explored the country a bit more!
Fenland Flier 20 May 7:34pm, 20 May 2024 11,817 posts	0 Fenland Flier It's not too late Joe1970 we've explored more of the UK since covid struck than the preceeding 29 years of our marriage. There's still an awful lot more we haven't seen but we shall continue while we are able to.

Remember that Yorkshire is still in the southern half of Great Britain. Lots of good stuff beyond!
