Below is (probably) the most extensive list of links to web sites about Land's End to John O'Groats cycling trips on the net.
The list is from Ian's Ultimate Links List that, sadly, disappeared in about 2011.
If you want to send a link to your own E2E web page, or pages that you know of that are not on this list then use the ENQUIRY/CONTACT form
My ride is No 176 - Rob & Joe's JOGLE 2005 - and I rode LEJOG with Jon in 2010
This is a very long page to scroll through .... the Library of Journals will, in due course, have all the entries here in an indexed and searchable form
The content has been copied without permission - I tried to contact Ian from the Ultimate Links several times but received no response. If there is an objection to continuing this valuable project then I will remove the content at once. The links have not all been checked and many may be dead.
Rob, Stratford-upon-Avon, March 2009
December 2009 - the list is being migrated, slowly, to the searchable library. A lot of the early links are dead - if one of the dead ones is yours and you have a working link, or have the journal in a form that can be hosted on this website (pdf or Word doc) then please let me know.
October 2020 - the dead links will be cleared when I get round to it!
The Ultimate Links List of Land's End to John O'Groats Cycle Trips
The trips are listed in date order, with the most recent at the top, but there is a big variety in the styles of trips undertaken, and types of sites written.
Some of the oldest sites are amongst the best and so I strongly recommend looking all the way to the bottom of the list for the information you may be after.
Some of the link descriptions highlight where there is particularly interesting or useful stuff.
If you read plenty of sites you will find advice and gems of information amongst them that will enable you to decide on the best way of undertaking the trip that will suit you.
The List
Just click on the links in blue to go to each site Struck through entries are also in The Library of Journals as they are migrated. Those marked DEAD LINK have been ignored in the migration process. A few Journals that were hosted on the Ultimate Links site have been converted by a simple copy/paste to .pdf files (either as raw text where there are no photographs, or via a Word document to retain pictures)
Entries that have been received after 20 March 2009 - are in the Library with a new number sequence starting at 501.

It's almost entirely minor roads, except for a few major A roads in Widnes, but if you check the map, there's really no alternative. There were a few days when we saw probably less than 50 cars! Because of this, the scenery is also very nice and rural. The thing that I liked best, was that you have the height profile laid out before you so that you can anticipate what sort of a day you're in for. If I did it again, I would take the same route." - Colin - - http://www.epicguides.co.nz/mproduce the Bike Britain Book - The CTC and others do routes on minor roads and it would be interesting to hear how this compares)

After speaking to Scotrail I now have the answer! BOOK ALL YOUR TRAIN TICKETS OVER THE PHONE AND GET THE RESERVATIONS AT THE SAME TIME. If you do it on-line, or in any other way, and then try to get your bike reservations after you've booked your train ticket, they can't give you a bike reservation ticket. The only way you can get a bike reservation ticket is if you get it at exactly the same time as your travel tickets, so ALWAYS book by phone or in person at the station and make sure you get the reservation there and then!
