6th November, Ride for Tim event in Bristol. Please come if you can. It's a chance to share the story of the memorial LEJOG and talk a bit about mental health and cycling. All welcome. Pls click 'attending' on this if you can come! fb.me/e/3zPGGTfPA

Thanks Mike. I'm comforted by that – the people who go live on in us.

Thank you for sharing x

You can always miss choir 😜

It was #WorldSuicidePreventionDay2025 on Wednesday and I was thinking about Tim all day. If he were still here, Tim would surely have posted something honest and inspiring. I wanted to do the same but it's not so easy when your friend has gone. So instead here's just a lovely memory.

If you're in Edinburgh (or thereabouts) I've planned a Ride for Tim event on 29th October. Would be wonderful to see you there. Presentations about the ride & mental health from me, Health in Mind and Nick Ray @nicklifeafloat.bsky.social fb.me/e/6IrqxMFSX All welcome 💙

Why the hell is BBC Radio 4 playing a clip of Nigel Farage slamming Angela Rayner for not paying enough tax?? What??

We're holding an event in Edinburgh (also Bristol – details to follow) to celebrate the ride and talk about the really important topic of mental health. 29th October, 7pm, Quaker Meeting house. Please come if you can. All welcome.

…and, did the social media intern in charge of the change hit a typo? What’s with the rogue ‘t’ at the end? 😂

Well done @zackpolanski.bsky.social 👏

Hi, if you still want this can you let me know the address? And make your donation of course. Then I can get it in the post 👍

Thank you 🙏

Thanks for asking. I’m ok, but possibly because I gave myself the week off! Not back at work til next week so I can ease back into real life.

The anti-climax wasn’t bad for me because I’ve cycled LEJOG before so I wasn’t so focused on the destination. The end was still sad though (of course).

Oh, strange! Not sure why - I’ve checked my settings. If it doesn’t work you can email instead: annavictoriahughes@yahoo.co.uk.

That’s very true and we can take some comfort from that 🩵

Still got a few of these left - let me know if you would like one. Yours in return for a donation to the fundraiser! givewheel.com/fundraising/...

...but it can’t last forever. The highs are always followed by a low, and if even the three of us feel down having finished our ride, it would have been especially so for Tim. Each time he went back to the day-to-day he would struggle. I wonder if, in the end, even the cycle tours weren’t enough."

Day 20: Melvich to John o’ Groats The first sign for John o’ Groats Not long after setting off we pass a NC500 sign for John o’ Groats – the first time we’ve seen our ultimate destination on a road sign. It feels wild that we…

Reflections on the ride:

"It’s hard coming off an adventure. For so long you’ve had a purpose, and when that purpose is over, it’s easy to think, now what? I wonder if that’s what overwhelmed Tim in the end: his adventures were his therapy... timcyclesthecoast.com/2025/08/24/d...

Nearly at £7k on the Ride for Tim fundraiser. I'd love to reach £10k if possible – please support the charities if you can! We are raising money for @mind.org.uk, @sustrans.bsky.social and @flightfreeuk.bsky.social, all charities Tim supported: givewheel.com/fundraising/...

Thank you 🙏

Thanks Pete.

Thank you Eilidh x

Thank you so much 🙏

Thank you 🙏

We’ve been craving a Sunday roast for the past three weeks, so now I’m back home here it is. And in honour of Tim there’s a full roast garlic bulb in there 🧄

(This is what vegans eat for Sunday roast: all the trimmings, plus a carrot and cashew nut roast)

Cheers Shivaji 🍻

The final entry of the diary is now done: the day we reached John o' Groats. It was moving and epic and I hope I've done the ride and Tim justice. timcyclesthecoast.com/2025/08/24/d...

Day 19: Crask Inn to Melvich National Cycle Network sign post at Crask Inn. John o Groats 90 miles! The midges are out. I can see them through the mesh in my inner tent, crawling over the fabric, waiting for their breakfast. T…

Day 19: Crask Inn to Melvich. timcyclesthecoast.com/2025/08/21/d... Midge day!! And the most wonderful ride along the north coast. In Lorenzo's words, the best day he's ever had on a bike.

Day 18: Dingwall to Crask Inn Ready to depart from Dingwall: L-R Tomas, Mark, Lorenzo and me There are a few options for routes from here when you’re riding a LEJOG: one is up the coastal A9 through Dornoch, Golspie, Helmsdale …

Day 18: Dingwall to Crask Inn. timcyclesthecoast.com/2025/08/20/d... Epic views, interesting bridges and a single track 'A' road with passing places. This is very much the wilderness!
