Initial beginnings

As we head into the deepest, darkest months of winter, my plans for a cycling tour of Britain are starting to gather pace. Already a departure date has been noted down in the 2009 diary and it would seem that only illness or a nuclear apocalypse are going to stop me. The reality, however, is that unless routes are planned and equipment readied, the actual departure will continue to be elusive.

The actual plan is to travel around the mainland of Great Britain, sticking as much as possible to the coast. There will be forays away from the coast to make contact with family and friends as well as visit sites and places of interest. I estimate that the journey will take roughly four months and cover approximately 8,000 miles. I aim to depart in early February.

So, having made my initial entrance into the world of blogging, I will leave again. But will be back soon with an update of my status. If you have any suggestions or comments, please do get in touch - I would be most be grateful.

Thanks for reading!

Until next time,

Charlie
