I'm heading to Poole on Thursday for an early Friday ferry across for my ride across Normandy. I hope you two haven't used all the good weather tokens.
Cheers Matt. I didn't want to steal your thunder. My paltry 220 miles in 3 days is not quite up to your expert level and Benny's cause is extremely significant for him and for Sue.
Keep charging Matt and don't lose him Benny..!! Tell teddy he is cool and get him to ask Matt why his bike in the photos's is almost always on the back of the car..?? All that excercise, you will obviously be like a whippet when you get back Matt and Benny, well he will have a right old beer gut I guess..??
Have fun and keep going..!!
Day 11/12 .....done! It was pretty ok today and the 70 odd miles didn't cause too much concern. I've got 695 miles out of this tank of diesel so far but it will need filling tomorrow. The air-con is still working well and the car is behaving itself. Meanwhile Matt is still cycling. Teddy's behaviour is going downhill rapidly now and we can't finish too soon. It is clear beer doesn't 'scratch that itch' any more and we can guess who his supplier is, can't we Zag! (#351).
Ok, one more day to go. I have added the GiftAid to the total and we are about £1600 plus 25% GiftAid from our £20k total. Please help us over the line.
Many have donated since I have been away and I have not had the time to credit you on this thread, but I will do upon my return.
