Tractor ride from Land's End to John O'Groats
A pair of tractor-loving farmers are planning to drive their vintage tractors from Land's End to John O'Groats.James Williamson and Johnny Sinclair will make the 970-mile journey in May in a bid to raise money for Leukaemia Research.
Riding the 1965 Massey Ferguson 135 and a 1955 Ferguson tractor they will have to avoid motorways.
As the tractors do not have cabs the pair, both from the Highlands, have also borrowed survival suits used by North Sea oil rig workers.
With the journey which is expected to take 12 days, just hope that you don't get stuck behind them ... at least not for all 970 miles.
James Williamson said: "This trip is inspired by my father who died from Leukaemia and had a passion for vintage tractors, in particular Ferguson tractors of which he had built up a small working collection. "We will be unable to travel on Motorways with our vehicles so our route will take us about 970 miles. It is my aim to raise at least £10 for every mile hence my target of £9,700."
