Yes… Raising money for Great Ormond Street, our chosen charity, is a good enough reason to part with a few quid. But Taking pleasure in a bunch of unfit wannabe do-gooders, inelegantly puffing & wheezing their way through an over-ambitious challenge, driven by egotism & misplaced self belief (and we don’t just mean Kate Jeffries) has to be worth parting with money for.

The Coast 2 Coast is a 147 mile bike ride starting from NW coast on Northern England (Whitehaven) and goes through the Lakes and eastwards to east coast (Sunderland).
