Story

We did it!
500 miles in 3 days and another successful challenge completed.
Although not quite everything went to plan. Unfortunately our grand plan of riding an authentic indian bike (transported all the way from india by Jon with the help of JET AIRWAYS) across the windy coast of ireland and through the rugged hills of gallway came to quite a premature end! 4 miles in and the bike's front wheel was no more, courtesy of a ditch and a some terrible irish driving. Fortunately for the team, Mike was unhurt, and we were able to carry on using our own bikes that we had taken along for this very reason.
Upon reaching Dublin it was fair to say that we were all shattered but feeling like we had accomplished something!
But the main reason for this bike ride is to raise money for Cancer Research UK and the British Heart Foundation, and with your help we can accomplish this challenge!
Thankyou to everyone who has donated so far and hopefully we'll soon reach our £1000 target.
