Story

We did it.

400 miles in 32 hours and 40 minutes.

Gordon, Mavin Anderson and myself doing the whole route with fantastic support from everyone, especially the Red Stripe support crew, who were there every time any of us reached out with an empty bottle, approached a junction or traffic lights or needed smething! Cutters and Endurance cycle clubs were also brilliant, the Police helped us with a motorcycle escort at various times, and Mario the incredible zoomed us back for the last 60 at uch a fast pace we didnt have time to think of the pain, only the potholes to avoid. 

 

It was amazing. We still need money though, as the Orthopedics dept is still in desperate need, so dont stop donating please.
