About us...

We are a dad and daughter team biking from Lands End in mid May and hopefully ending 18 days and 1000 miles later in John O'Groats. Chris been training rides in the Chiltern hills, whilst Louise (who lives in Amsterdam) has had to make do with flatter terrain. We are doing this for the challenge and to raise money for the brilliant work of Thembalitsha UK. To sponsor us please click here.

Day 11

We've discovered the new must have accessory for todays cyclist - bright yellow gardening gloves! An essential protection for Chris's hands during the torrential rain that greeted us as we emerged for our days ride this morning. The day improved when a lady stopped us asking if we were cycling to John O'Groats, turns out she was the wife of Paul who we met in Cornwall & Shropshire doing a solo ride and who was just a couple of miles behind. We met up for a long lunch in a local garden centre which also gave the opportunity to dry and warm up. Cycled to Brampton today only 43 miles and we've decided to take a days break tommorrow as we're feeling the miles a bit. Hopefully we'll find a computer and upload some pics.
