Mood: Raring to Ride
Geordie, Comendations mate. Its got to be the ultimate journey to do in a way, Ive done it twice now and know a route that won't see a motorway at all. Did it in 90/91 as a ten man relay running all the way and still hold the record. Found it cleaner to set up a bank account, so all your monies go through that, whether the're going to this or that charity. Call it what you like i.e. BDG Charity Ride your bank manager should see you all right. Preperation and planning are a good thing, hope fully you may be able to bum a few nights accomodation off some of the lads on site , Plan your route well and if possible seek local knowledge , before we started our run I had nearly covered all our route by recceeing it first although time is not an issue as it was for us nothing worst than getting down on one of the main bridges to find it closed for repair, as I did on the road from Biggar to Moffet. Unfortunetly Im a little way of coarse in South Beds to help with accomadation but if I can help route wise let me no. I'll start the ball rolling with a donation of £15 email an address so I can send it . Regards and good luck 4D
