Hi All,

I'm planning on cycling solo from Lands End to John O'Groats in May 2011 non- stop.

Training is going well, but having a bit of trouble planning the route. I'm basically looking for the shortest and flattest route I can find to get between the two points as fast as possible.

Obviously the route planning needs to be really detailed so I know where all the lay- bys in the roads are and where I'll be able to temporarily stop and meet the support car etc. It would also be good to be able to work out where the inclines/ declines are so that I'm able to plan where I'm going to be at certain times - I'd like to try to avoid the roads closest to the towns/ cities when they are busiest so I'll need to plan what time I'll start the ride to do this.

Does anyone know if the routes used by others on a similar LEJOG cycle are available from anywhere? Or failing this what the best resources would be for me to put my own route together?

I've noticed the roads around Glasgow go pretty close to the city, is there any way around this if I want a short fast route?

Finally, I always assumed with the prevailing winds that it would be best to start from Lands End, however I've noticed a number of people recently starting from John O'Groats. Are there any other advantages from starting at one end over the other? I'd prefer to start at John O'Groats and get the Scottish Highlands out the way at the beginning, but had always been told Lands End would be a better starting point.

Any assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers,

Rich
