Good Morning and welcome to the "Official" MR2OC "Way Of The Roses" Cycle Challenge thread in order to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support

All too often, our lives are touched by people who do whatever they can to make lives better despite them not knowing anything about you. My life has been effected by these people and personally, I would like to give back.

To this end, we have a team of us tackling the "Way Of The Roses" cycle route, from the west coast at Morecombe, right across the country to the east coast at Bridlington which is roughly 170 miles coast to coast. Chances are, we'll be taking a slightly longer route to ensure that road bikes can handle it OK and we'll be stopping overnight to recharge.

The date of this challenge is 20th/21st May 2017 so I'll attempt to keep this thread up to date with all our developments
