Thank you......

Just a quick post to say a big THANK YOU to all of you out there who have sponsored us and given us support thro our adventure. Chris will be giving you all a full run down in the near future & I have no doubt that I will add a few things, so briefly:
*Cheers dude for getting me thro the last climb when my lungs were about to explode.
*Fi for the great job you did caring and looking after us all.
*Bob for the never ending positive attitude that nearly killed me!!!!!!
*All the companies who helped us out especially Mudie Bond for the great Mercedes Vito van - I was so impressed that I'm thinking of getting one.
*Chris's parents/family who support & sponsor us in these barmy challenges we do. Oh and the persuasive way that manage to get people to sponsor us....

*Jen for the updates and putting up with me for the weeks before the ride.
Thats enough for now but as Chris mentioned, watch out for the downhill descent footage. (which will last with me forever) I'm sure a few photos will appear soon, probably of me knowing Chris...
Whats next, Chris reckons he will never ride again but I'm not so sure. I am already getting thoughts about our next challenge.

As Gordon Ramsay would say "520 miles, 14 km up the Alpe D'Huez....DONE" !!!!!!!!

It's me, Mrs M, It was a pleasure to make sure the 'Hamsters' were fed and watered. I must admit, the part of the hamster cage (known as the Merc Vito van) that had the most crumbs belonged to Chris! From where I was sitting I could see how hard the team rode, how much sweat was dropped and felt the pain they went through. Hats off to them, it was bad enough driving up those steep, narrow, frog splattered roads (those that go croke). My duties end here. No more making of sandwiches, energy drinks, fuelling the van and shouting my support to them. Well done lads! What are we going to do for next years challenge? Fiona.
