LEJOG Day 33 - Melvich to John o'Groats

Final Day!!! And we've completed the End to End!
• 1,865 km cycled
• 19,350 m climbing (a bit over two Mt Everests)
• 28 days on the bike
• 5 rest days

Fast cycle to Thurso, to make sure we arrived for our Wolfburn whisky distillery tour. A small independent operation where everything is done by hand. Informative tour followed by a tasting of 4 of their whisky's.

Fortified, we headed off for the final section. Grazing land morphed into windswept open fields. Mist and light rain (but a nice WSW wind) pushed us along straight (uninspiring) roads to the official signpost.

Wet but happy! Job well done!!
