Been no more than willing novices the hilly ride will be a grueling test of physical fitness and endurance and should take between 9 - 10 hours of constant cycling.</span></p> <p style="margin-top: 11.3px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 16px/normal &#39;VAG Rounded LT Light&#39;; font-family: Helvetica; font-weight: normal; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: small;">Please help to make my challenge as memorable as possible by donating as much as you can.
