Thats A Wrap!

There we go, all done.

Over 10 days , 996 miles were cycled, 3 mountains were climbed, tens of thousands of calories were burned and consumed and we are the proud owners of a massive sense of achievement.

After a few weeks of holidays and resting we are both very proud of what we achieved and very thankful for all the support we recieved.

To date we have rasied £5,099.88 for Cancer Research.

On tuesday I will be depositing the last of the money that has been collected and so will update the total then.

The even better news is that we both still enjoy riding. Various ideas are being kicked around for more adventures next year. We definately have the bug!

So, to stick a fork in the whole adventure I would like to thank a few people.

Ang & Phil - without these 2 we wouldn't have made it. Ang cooked up food constantly and was always there to crack a joke, mainly out of his bum, but he raised the mood none the less. Phil drove A LOT of miles and always made sure the canyonero was where it needed to be to give us a break, joined us on the mountains and was a welcome break from the monotony that is Sonny Winston.

Sonny - For some unknown reason, we work well together. Perhaps I fancy him a bit, perhaps he fancies me a bit, who knows but we make a good team. We both know why we did this and in retrospect, it was a pleasure to share a tiny bed and one of the biggest adventures of my life with one of the strangest human beings I have ever met. Kudos Sir, Kudos.

Everyone who sponsored us personally thankyou. Everyone who raised money for us at schools (Abbots Farm, The Revel), work (Stevie B!)and sent us messages of encouragement and support, thankyou!

I'm sure Sonny will have a few words to say once he's back from Polskie, but from me, until next year...

ADIEU!!
