Author's Bio
Having unintentionally cycled 50 miles in a single day with a reasonably heavy load, Chiz Dakin decided that she was now ready to tackle multi-day cycle touring, and two weeks later set out on the Land's End to John o' Groats route. Since then she's done several other multi-day trips, including a pioneering Welsh Coast cycle route (600 miles and 16km of ascent), but still maintains that you don't need to be seriously fit or fast to enjoy long multi-day routes. A member of the Outdoor Writers and Photographers Guild and the National Academy of Sports and Outdoor Photographers, she has won an award for her photography.
