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:

Our Day In Rome

If you are mad enough to cycle through Rome............do it on a Sunday! Most of the roads leading to the major sights were closed to cars and buses. It was amazing, cruising straight up to the Coliseum on our trusty bikes. We finshed the Via Flaminia, cycled through the city and straight out the other side. We would have liked to have stayed on the Via Appia but changed our route to cycle down the coast road instead.

The Trevi Fountain (with all the tourists editted out)



 More ancient ruins!!...... They were everywhere

Guess where we are and where we come from!

    I love that last caption! Haha! You're both looking very happy and toned! I am working my butt off here - wish I could have done some driving :( Still it's very sunny. Accidently cut a toad in half - that was my drama for the day. xxxxxxx
