Our route takes us the casual distance of 1400 miles, crossing through 9 countries (</span><span style="font-family: &quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: #333333; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin;">Hungary, Slovakia, Austria, Germany, Switzerland, France, Luxembourg, Belgium and England). </span></span></p> </span></span> <p>Two weeks to go untill we set off... Fund raising still going well for the three of us, and even training picked up a bit too! Despite a few setbacks -&nbsp;such as Elliot being told his bike wouldn't make it back if he took it and myself being unable to train for a week due to work - everything has begun to come together and we now almost have a route to follow, mainly thanks to Oli.</p> <p>With such a short space of time to go we're looking to try and finalise everything in the coming days and make a final push with fundraising to try and beat all our targets.</p> <p>As ever, many thanks.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> </p>
