Cycle Day 27 Home at last
We arrive in Rosyth at 11 am on Tuesday 19th August. It is raining (hard!). We head into Edinburgh. The rain eases on the Forth Road Bridge.
At 1pm we arrive home.
We have cycled a total of 1688 km (1048 miles) over 27 days of cycling, an average of 62.5km per day.
We passed through 12 countries - Scotland, England, France, Germany, Finland, Russia, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Netherlands and Belgium.
Isla busked in Paris, Helsinki, Moscow, St Petersburg, Tallinn, Riga, Gdansk and Berlin.
Isla hopes she has raised lots of money for streetchildren in Ethiopia. Many thanks to all our sponsors - we'll be in touch soon!
We hear that the UK has won 3 cycling Gold medals at the Olympic Games - let's hope cycling becomes more popular as a result and that better facilities are provided. The contrast between here and continental Europe is stunning.
Thank you for reading our blog.

Congratulations Andy, Cathy and Isla! 1600km is a l-o-n-g way. It sounds like a fantastic trip. I hope the busking was fun Isla and that you raised a lot for the street children. I'm impressed at all your hard work.
