John o'Groats to Land's End – D3

Day Three of Four • England • Distance: 225 miles • Riding time: 6 hours • Our relaxed alternative to the traditional John o'Groats to Land's End dash continues southwards – roughly parallel to the M6 and M5 you'd probably be sat on if you were doing it in a day, but instead enjoying the quieter roads through the Peak District and the heart of England. From quiet villages to empty back-roads, this has to be a better way to see the country than sitting on a motorway.
