LeJog Day#18 John’s 81th birthday

Today’s ride was a very special one! I rode for 81 miles at good pace in a group ride along with John, a Zwift’s legend that was celebrating its 81th birthday. There was a really great ambiance there and we all had a good time and fun. I will...

LeJog Day#17 Scotland border

Very early ride this morning with a total of 117km that brought me into Scottish territory and although Hadrian’s Wall might have marked the border between Britannia and Caledonia, it lies a long way south of the current country border. Scotland’s only land border, the divide now spans the...

LeJog Day#16 Hadrian’s Wall

Back on the bike after two days of rest, today’s 57km brought me very close the Scottish’s border after a total of 1121km since Lane’s End. In fact I reached Hadrian’s Wall and as any proud Scot will tell you, the Romans never made it there. Here are some...

Bradford was a hive of industry in the 19th century, and plentiful employment encouraged widespread immigration, particularly from Ireland, and also a significant...

LeJog Day#11.1 Sheffield, Peak District Park

I made it through the night in the Sherwood forest, nor Robin Hood nor the Sheriff disturbed my sleep 😉 Today I rode for 144km, broke through the symbolic 50% of the whole journey barrier which made pass through a lot of places and such I decided to divide...

LeJog Day#10 Leicester, Nottingham & Sherwood Forest

Reached 802km, today’s ride (84km) made me pass through Leicester, Nottingham and the well know Sherwood Forest which has an even very special meaning since it’s directly linked to the cause I am supporting « The Forest ». Speaking of which I would like to thanks very much another supporter who...
