Story

Hello,

'Major Bumsore and his Privates!!!!

We are a team of 4 engineers/cyclists from Scott White and Hookins Civil and Structural Engineers.

We completed the Massif Extramile Challenge cycle relay on 26th to 28th September 2008, from Lens in Northern France, via Fontainebleau and Bourges finishing at the Puy de Dome.

Overall it took us 25 hours and 7 minutes over the 3 days to cycle 506.2 miles, at an average speed of 20.2 mph. We finished 7th out of the 43 teams that completed the challenge.

Thank you for visiting our fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor us online.

The three stages were
Day 1: Lens to Fontainebleau (187 miles)
Day 2: Fontainebleau to Bourges (167 miles)
Day 3: Bourges to Vichy (143 miles)
