RIDE DONE - EVERYONE COMPLETED AND HOME SAFE! 16 HOURS AND JUST ABOUT AVOIDED THE WORST OF THE WEATHER! MANY THANKS TO ALL INVOLVED AND THANK YOU ALL FOR THE KIND DONATIONS.
A group of crazy cyclists are planning a one day adventure -- to cycle from Exmouth to Wimbledon - a distance of 300km (actually its 304km) IN ONE DAY! The group have chosen this event to raise money for two charities - The Magnolia Incentive (an educational charity based in Exmouth) and the Ben Trend Foundation (an educational charity based in Wimbledon). The event was chosen in memory of Ben Trend - an ultra mathron runner who unfortunately died two years ago but is still strong in our memory.
Information on the charities can be found at:

The riders with me are Andrew Cotton, Andy Skinner, Simon Tanner, Les Monk and Bill Blurton from Exmouth and Robert Clarke, Dan Holmes, Mark Cusack, Kevin Darlington from Wimbledon.
