Welcome to our 'mini' bike ride.




We're off again ! This time down to Falmouth in Cornwall. Mary Ann's son Jack is coming to the end of his 3 years at uni down there and we haven't ever seen the house he moved into for his second year ! Sal has to see it too as she is his Godmother and feels the need !
So we are leaving from Putney Bridge on Friday 9th March 2012. This is near the beginning of the UK cycle route 4 which ends in Wales. Actually we are jumping off at Bristol and then heading down to Glastonbury and joining Route 3 which is part of the Lands End to John O'Groats route. We should take 7 or 8 days to do it soooo Welcome to the ride.

Our charity page is still up and running. PLEASE don't feel obligated as we are well passed our target but if you are feeling flush........

Our chosen charity is Cancer Research UK. Anyone wishing to donate please go to:

We've done our first 20 miles !

Sal seems to be fine. Charlie and Dan drove us to the centre of Calais and we had a wonderful couple of hours finding Liques mostly along a canal. Sunshine all the way (sorry Andrew!) and a cold beer at the end. We did have to negotiate one very long , fairly steep hill that seemed never ending but we flew down the other side ! (I didn't use my brakes once Bruce!!!) Photos tomorrow...we have arrived at a great camp site but now need to plan tomorrow and get to bed.
