Cycle Round Britain

An adventure in my own backyard.


The Challenge

During lockdown laps of Clapham Common I started to dream of slow travel around the coastline of Britain with my bike and a swimsuit. The idea took hold and I’m off. I’m breaking the journey into manageable chunks of a few days, or even a week or two, here and there – my goal is to cycle anti clockwise around the whole of Britain by the end of 2022, dipping in the sea where I can.

The Cycle Route

The route has been broken down into sections. Click on each section to link to the Route page for the actual route ridden. I’ll also blog a description of each ride and sea dip.

Sea Dipping Along The Way

I’m an avid year-round sea swimmer. During my journey I want to dip in the sea as much as possible and will post the spots and any comments here.
