NAME:Nick
AGE: 57
BIKE: 1996 Honda VFR750, with 140,000 miles under its belt!
STRATEGY: Ride safely and don't fall asleep before John O'Groats.
WHAT YOU THINK THE TOUGHEST PART OF THE CHALLENGE WILL BE: Trying not to stop every hour for a wee! And everything else… this is mental...
PREVIOUS LONGEST BIKE TRIP: I did a test ride on the VFR from my home in Wiltshire to Yorkshire, to visit family, no motorways. That was 10 hours in the saddle and 430 miles. I was shocked when I finally got home and realised that was less than half the distance and time of the LDC.
