Your Story or Advice for Others

General Comments
For Geoff W and i, this was our second end to end Bibb. First Bibb was completed in 2019 Sept-Oct. We’ve completed both Bibb North to South. We are already planning to complete a third end to end Bibb, from South to North in 2028.

Your Best Equipment
Norda trail shoes, meant we had no blisters, and walking poles.

Your Worst Equipment
My older head torch, got wet and failed to charge.

Advice for Others
Take your time, plan to have 3 -4 zero days in towns, to prevent any niggling injuries.
