So that’s it, no more training now!! if we are not fit now we will never be. We are both now nursing ourselves to make sure that we don’t get injured or do anything that could jeopardise the trip. I really fancied getting the longboard out tonight as well but that is going to have to wait […]
Over the last few weeks…
You may have noticed that we have not been blogging about the training that we have been doing and its not because we haven’t been doing any it’s just it’s been manic few months. We got told by our previous land lord that the flat we were living in was being damaged by our “heavy-duty […]
The Floods
It was a morning like any other. I woke up at 7.30, had my breakfast and got ready to cycle to University. It was an important day at Uni, it was the final date to submit all of my assignments and work – so it was important that i was not late. I looked out the window […]
A Windy 50 Miles
On Thursday 14th June we had another Mystery Dine visit to do. This time it was in Brighton. This would be our longest round trip yet at 50Miles return, but we were up for the challenge. We set out at 11am with the aim to get to Brighton for 1pm, in time to have lunch […]
The Crown and Anchor

6 weeks to go…
On Saturday 2nd June we headed out for a training session for the first time in what felt like ages. We started off towards Barnham and then carried on towards Eartham instead of going towards Fontwell. It was nice to cycle down some different roads and not know what to expect. This made the cycle […]

An Update on our training
Hello everybody we figured it was about time that we updated all of our followers on what has been going on and how we are getting on with our training and our trip. The weather has been terrible and with my health I really cant afford to get ill as getting a cold knocks a […]
28/04/12 Hangover Training
Today was probably the worst cycling experience I have had to ever go through the night before myself, and Jane was in a few of our local pubs to try to drum up some publicity for our trip and get permission from the landlords to put Help For Heroes boxes in the pubs and get […]
26/04/12 Slow Windy Cycle
Today was a wet day to start with and both myself and Jane did not sleep to well due to the wind and rain in the night. We did the barnham loop again but for some reason it was a slow ride. Jane looked tired and I have been pretty busy with some projects that […]
