<p>Saturday - York - Bridlington, 60 miles. They made it. Thankfully weather not so hot today and not so many hills to climb. Met up with 2 of their families at Burton Agnes Hall for well earned cake and only 9 miles to go. Malcolm's 12 year old nephew Morgan wanted to cycle the last mile with them for Gemma and met up with them just short of the end. 4 very weary, but happy guys at the end of their trip - Gemma very proud of all of them. And so are we - thank you Malcolm, Colin, Guy & Simon - it really means a lot! Jo x</p>
<p>Friday - Day 2 completed - made it to York, 110 miles down, 60 to go. It was Hot Hot Hot today, and bottoms are starting to get very sore - but the worst is over and it's all (mostly!) downhill from here. Thanks for all your support - target now reached which is amazing.</p>
<p>Thursday - Well, that's the first day done! 50 miles cycled, they survived the hills, mainly! Treated themselves to a cider and slice of cake a few miles from Grassington so they can't feel that bad!! Grassington to York, 60 miles, tomorrow! Thank you so much for all your kind donations. 81% of target reached and climbing.....</p>

This means there is very little research into it. The MRT has been set up to raise money to fund research into what causes this condition.
