My first big trip, me and my brother decided to do Lands end to John O Groats in a day,3 days round trip and 1900 miles, it was harder than it looked, if anyones thinking about doing this do it in the summer and not in April like we did, it rained for 60% of the trip and towards the end it was pitch black and it wasent easy riding through those country lanes when its dark and pissing down with rain. We got to john o groats hotel and got the paper signed to prove we did it then it was off to the hotel and a well deserved drink or 10, anyway hope you enjoy the video.
And the bike vid at the end is in fast forward lol

me and my bro on bmw gs1150 adv.

Do you think that will make any difference - we did it on the longest day of then year, overnight, and it still rained . Didn't expect any different, it's scotland
