When I was planning my solo, unsupported
cycling trip from John O’Groats to Land’s End a friend of mine said “you should
meet Anna, she cycled around the circumference of the island so if you think
just doing the length is a big deal, she’ll put you straight.” Anna became my
oracle and after just one phone call I turned my idea into a definite plan. When
I met her she had just finished writing about her adventure and I was one of
the first people to read Eat Sleep Cycle. I was lucky to have a friend like Anna
on speed dial in case I needed advice or a pep talk.
