Mrs S&Q just back from completing the London walk for life supporting womens breast cancer research - got me thinking....has anyone in the group previously orgainsed a sponsored run ? I was thinking along the lines of John o Groats to Lands end or maybe a megalithic tour around the periphery of our fair isle ? If this has already been done in the past I'll shut up, just thought it might be kinda cool......

Doh.....:xm Run to the chip shop or battle cruiser maybe......!!!! I am sure there were a load of bods trying to set a bike run from land end to JoG and back again a few years ago but never pulled it off....could be a giggle doing the entire periphery and more importantly raise some serious wedge for a charity and gain some damn great publicity for biking....

a mate and i want to do it on a honda cub sometime when work commitments allow (ie when it's busy - best time to be off!!) we thought 10 days should be ok including getting a van to get bikes to and from start/finish destinantions.

Rods, during the National Rally, we often get C90's passing through the check point.. Some aiming for the big medals too !

I reckon a C90 would be an easy bike to do the challenge on.. Go for it mate..
