As a bit of background the three men are myself, Steve, whom I have known since God was a lad, and Mark who I have known not quite as long! Another very important member of the team is Sandra, Mark's wife. Sandra is driving the "support vehicle" amoungst many other things, and we could not do the ride without her, so a big thanks Sandra.
This blog will record the highs and lows of our journey as we attempt to complete the trip to Lands End in 12 days. None of us had ridden bikes seriously before and so the last three months have been about buying bikes, falling off bikes - whose bright idea was it to clip your feet onto the pedals! - as well as training to get fitter than we were!
The blog will, I hope, be fun to read and irreverant in parts so for those of you with weak dispoitions don't read this over breakfast! I really should get one of my lawyer friends to write a disclaimer!
I hope you enjoy the ride!
