[The Duke of Wales]

Hi All,

What a shame I have just read today the 2012 ride has been cancelled, what a shame. The 2011 ride was the first ride we have attended and was awesome! Was really looking forward to this one. Hopefully there will be another ride next year.

I am still going to do Land's End to John O'Groats anyway on June 23rd (subject to a day before or after) as i have time off now and still want have to do it, so i will be having a 'mini' longest day with my beautiful wife The Duchess of Wales.

Well done Mark for all your help with TLD, i know how difficult organising these things can be and am not able to help organise sadly but hope to see you all soon. If my stickers dont come i can make some for myself and fly the flag for TLD...until the next time.

If we meet anyone along the way...happy days.

All be safe.

Well done all TLD folk

I have done JoG Le, for the first TLD, have given my head a shake and will do a Long Run on the day, but set off from Home at 0400 and get back at 2200, and see what is achieved in the day Rather than spending 3 days getting to LE and then back. will see what TLD 2013 brings :toothy1:

good luck with it, but in September you will not have as much day light ( clearly ) and I hope some one does it with you as it really helps :thumbup:

What a bummer, organising these can become a nightmare, so for those who were putting it together thank you for your time, effort and probably a few years off your life span. It really is a shame

salute

One thing to consider about these events are registering riders can pay a lot of money for hotels etc (most times booking is non refundable)...time off work. Childcare etc...and to find out only a month before that ride is cancelled is a bit short notice when you've been registered for over 6 months.
