My cousin, James Peach, is partaking in an admirable challenge to cover the the height, width and length of Britain in 15 days.
The challenge starts in John O'Groats and heads, by bike, to Ben Nevis, the highest mountain in the UK, which they will climb (coinciding with the 240th anniversary of it's first ascent by James Robertson on 17th August 1771). They then continue by bike down to Bournemouth.
The final leg of the challenge involves kayaking from the mouth of the River Avon, along the length of the Kennet & Avon canal joining the River Thames at Reading and continuing on to the finish line at Putney Bridge, London.
They are raising money for the Enaikishomi Nursery school in kenya. Visit the website at http://www.britainintandem.com/ and follow their journey. (website appears to be down at the moment - contact james peach on facebook for more info).
