点评:In January 2025, our friend Tim McKenna lost his battle with his mental health and took his life. He was a wonderful man, friend and father, and was an inspiration to many, through his cycling adventures and his openness about his mental health troubles.
In August 2025 we paid tribute to Tim by riding LEJOG, in the way he loved to ride: relaxed, self-supported, with plenty of great food, good beer and whisky.
We stopped off at WOLFBURN Distillery and purchased a delicious bottle of their NORTHLAND Whisky to celebrate at JOHN O’GROATS.
I asked if they had any plastic cups for us to use - they had none but very very kindly gave us 4 of their finest glasses for us to celebrate Tim’s Life. We will be eternally grateful for this kind act . We duly then had two or three measures to celebrate Tim - a fitting end to our cycle from Lands End.
It is so wonderful when you are surprised by such kindness - so thank you again from us all .
翻译:2025年1月,我们的朋友蒂姆·麦肯纳因精神疾病去世,最终结束了自己的生命。他是一位优秀的人、朋友和父亲,他的骑行冒险经历以及他对自身精神问题的坦诚,激励了很多人。
2025年8月,我们以蒂姆热爱的方式,参加了LEJOG骑行活动,以此向他致敬:轻松自在,自给自足,提供丰富的美食、上等啤酒和威士忌。
我们在WOLFBURN酿酒厂稍作停留,买了一瓶美味的NORTHLAND威士忌,准备在JOHN O’GROATS庆祝。
我问他们有没有塑料杯给我们用——他们没有,但非常非常慷慨地给了我们四个最好的杯子,让我们来纪念蒂姆的一生。我们将永远感激他们的善举。之后,我们适时地喝了两三杯酒来纪念蒂姆——这为我们从兰兹角出发的骑行画上了圆满的句号。
当您对我的善意感到惊讶时,我们感到非常高兴,因此我们再次向您表示感谢。
