Training!

Only ten days to go! Training is almost finished with possibly one short (20mile) trip left to do tomorrow before we relax and 'taper off' letting the legs recover before the big day.

We have both spent six months training - cycling 3-4 times a week - and hope that it is enough. Day two will tell us if we can't move after 90 miles on day one. The biggest challenge will be slowing down so we can pace ourselves over the ten days.

Jeff, our support driver, will act as tea-maker, lunch bringer and broom wagon!
