The Why Not? Blog

At the tender age of 25 Dave started skateboarding. 14 months later he became the first person to skate the length of Britain. Another 8 months on he had crossed Australia on his board, breaking a world record & raising over £20,000 for three charities. Now, at 27, he's writing his first book, is a motivational speaker and a businessman, and he's only just gotten started on a lifetime of challenges which from the outside look just darn crazy. So, why? You know the answer, don't you. Why not?

Day 6: South from Dalwhinnie

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My phone is broken. To get hold of me please call Holly's phone on 07834 276402. To avoid the A9 which is getting increasingly busier we're going to head due south via country roads from Dalwhinnie, missing out Pitlochry, Perth and Edinburgh. Will hopefully be back on track come Monday night, where I hope to have reached Abington.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The van is troublesome. It's half two and haven't done any skating today. In a bit will be heading back to where we ended up last night but not much sleep last night and the stress, added to 175 miles in 5 days will slow today down a lot.

The route is going to have to change a bit for the next three days but fingers crossed the van will be sorted one way or another this weekend.

Ahhhh, deep breaths. On we plug!
