Any of you who know Benjamin James Woods (a.k.a Our Ben) nephew of the late Joseph B. Crilly, will know that he is a veteran cycler of epic 6-week journeys. Quietly and modestly accepting no praise or admiration for his daring feats.

This time, however, his pushy big sis (that’s me) has talked him into letting me do a charity fundraise under the condition that he would have nothing to do with this social media malarky, but agreed to send me pics along the way. Those pics will be passed on to you lovely folks through here with permission from Ben to fundraise in memory of Joseph B. Crilly for mental health research.
