NOT many people can say they have travelled from one end of Britain to the other but Bicester's answer to Forrest Gump can better that by saying…

And from the Support Crew - It was an absolute pleasure being with Jamie and Ewan everyday of their challenge. They are truly inspiring.

This was a huge challenge for Jamie which was Jamie's idea of demonstrating how challenging each day is for a dyslexic when surrounded by people who cannot understand.

The Unicorn School is unique. It provides hope and clarity as its pupils journey through the world of education, becoming incredible inspiring young people of our future, achieving goals beyond their dreams.

I'm sorry it's late. I haven't had any internet so I couldn't post anything. I would like to say a massive thanks to everyone for supporting us on our amazing adventure from Lands End to John O'Groats. I would like to start by saying thank you to the support team (Mum and Richard) because they cooked some amazing meals and put a smile on our faces. I would like to say thank you to Ewan for giving me this crazy idea and helping me achieve it. I would also like to say thank you to Robin Brooks and Paddy, Ann and Stacey for letting us stay with you. Really sorry about your roof Robin! Finally, I would like to say a massive thank you to everyone who has supported and donated - Jamie

Day 10 The Finish

We are currently driving home so it's hard to update things properly and get the John O'Groats pictures uploaded.
Day 10 started with the most amazing scenery and we were surprised by being confronted by a Stag Red Deer who kindly posed for pictures.

This was by far the hardest days cycling with 4,500 ft elevation over 84 miles of Sutherland and Caithness. But it was worth it. Finally it smoothed out and at about 4.15pm we rolled into John O'Groats, our adventure completed. More pics to follow.

Day 8 Loch Lomond to Fort Augustus

This has got to be one of the most amazing days of my adventures. There are cycling trips in this world but nothing beats the West Highlands for scenery. We left our campsite at 0615 and stopped off at the Green Welly Stop in Tyndrum, moving onto Kingshouse Hotel, just before we assaulted Glen Coe, watch this space for the Go Pro footage of the Glen Coe descent which we are just uploading.

We smashed into Fort Augustus with nearly 98 miles on the GPS, far more than I've ever done, or Jamie.

We are both totally knackered, I shall try and explain why, in 8 days we have cycled 619 miles, ascended 19,755 feet and burnt 34,643 calories and we
both can't wait for the next two days to finish at John O'Groats.

Keep an eye out for the Glen Coe footage. Thank you for your kind donations, every penny donated goes to the Unicorn School
