Story

So, Dave and James were looking for a new challenge which would also raise money for a great charity. 

"London to Amsterdam, June 2019 - 360 miles over 4 days to raise money for Teenage Cancer Trust.... that sounds good, lets do it!" we said .... But wait, why bother starting from London when you can start from home? So we decided Monmouth to Amsterdam, 500 miles over 6 days would be way more challenging! 

Oh, thats an average of 85 miles a day for 6 days....(ouch, my bum hurts thinking about it!). This is without doubt the toughest physical (and probably mental) challenge either of us has ever attempted. But no where close to the challenge of dealing with Cancer in your teens !!!

So some very hard training will be required....and through the winter in order to be ready for June! No slacking, no lazy weekends in front of the nice warm fire, we need to be doing 100 mile rides by April (gulp)!

All we ask in return is a little support from our collegues, friends and family. Please give generously to a great charity. We have a BIG target to reach!!
