Sat 13 Aug Lizzard to Lands End

We couldn't believe that this day had arrived.  It was really strange cycling past St Michaels Mount and then Penzance.

While in Penzance we bumped into a couple of cyclist who were about to start their LEJOG but one of them needed to buy a new waterproof jacket first.  It seemed strange to think that they had their route in front of them while ours was nearly over.

The last 10 miles to Lands End was strange during which we talked about the journey we had completed and the people that we had met.  We both agreed that it had been an amazing trip.

It was surreal arriving in Lands End, we were met at the famous signpost by our brilliant children and their partners along with Jackies Mum who had tried to come down to meet us in surprise but the fact that she is so honest had failed miserably to keep it as a surprise and we had both full expected her to be there.

It was a great arrival and we loved it.

The total mileage was 1080 miles and pictures will be added on over the next day or so with final thoughts but just to let you all know that we made it, we are now home and are both very happy.
