    I am planning to walk the coast path later this summer & my planned companion has dropped out

    Remember this walk is on your door step & is one the best walks in the whole world voted by National Geographic

    Would anyone like to join me
    Happy to do it any of the last weeks in August or even September
    Willing to do it in 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12 days
    Can either stay over or drive each day – if I do it on my own will drive to finish of each day drop my bike off – drive to start & park & walk to finish & cycle back to start & drive home – that way walking & cycling whole distance.

    Your challenge is to move out of your comfort zone & join me!!

    May be persuaded to do a multi day cycling challenge later in summer if anyone wants

    Finished it in 9 days – excellent stuff thoroughly recommend doing it – if stayed over every night could have done it in 8 days – but Pete doing it in 6 – fantastic achievement. The average gradient each day was over 3%. This is in the top walks in the world as voted by National Geographic & it is right on our doorstep so should make the effort to do it.

    Well done Matt.

    I totally agree, it is well worth doing.
