John O'Groats to Lands End cycle challenge

Having planned, organised, managed and cycled numerous ‘leJogs and Jogles’ over the years I can without hesitation say that Imp Adventures End 2 End is without doubt the best compromise between too short (10 days) and too long (14 days). 12 days allows us to avoid the most dangerous section of many routes (Loch Lomand A82 suicide section)

Using quality accommodations, lunch stops and second to none service and support this challenge offers you the chance to undertake this iconic cycle challenge without the worry of getting lost, sleeping in wet tents or worrying about mechanical failures or other catastrophes that haunt many cheaper and lesser companies offerings.
