Day 6 finished😊

Mission Completed

Strava stopped in London so actually about 86km today

Just under 500km for the week.

Very tired but proud of our achievement.
I've loved every single moment of the adventure.

Thanks to Ted for being the very best of cycling buddies. There's no one else I'd have rather done this with than you. Thanks for coming up with idea, and putting up with me for a week.

Thanks to Amy and Sue for supporting us along the way, refuelling us and feeding us medicine to keep us going.

Thanks to everyone that supplied us with flapjacks and cakes.

Thanks to Oli, Josh and Rob for joining us on routes, you don't know how much this helped us.

Thanks so much to Daisy for updating the socials all week. I've missed you not being with us.

Thanks to all Family and Friends for coming to see us at the finish. It was so nice to see you all after a very long week in the saddle.

Thanks to the makers of Sudocrem 😊

And finally, thank you all so much for the generous donations and messages of support throughout the week. It kept us pedalling at times.

Havens Hospices are so grateful, as are we.

It's been an emotional week but one I will never forget 💚🚴💙🚴

Day 5 of the ride complete.

A gigantuan 88km

Ted feeling so rough, I don't know how he did it.

Beautiful weather through the Hampshire villages.

Last 18k was a total blur and not sure what happened.

Time to eat some protein and pasta, and lots of it 😋

We are hoping to arrive at Havens hospices at Priory Park between 3 & 4pm.

We plan to ride down prittlwell chase from The Old Vienna roundabout for anyone that would like to join us for the last section of the the ride.

See you there, maybe in my leggings 😂

Thanks again for the incredible support and donations. We are absolutely blown away with the generosity and kind words to keep us going. 🫶

Day 4 - after a days rest

Back in the saddle and back with a bang 💪

Fully rested and rejuvenated although can't seem to shake off these horrible coughs/colds.

Joined by Rob and Jane's Date Flapjacks, we made great progress through Christchurch and New forest.

Into Southampton and dicing with the dual carriageways and articulated lorries wasn't much fun. But perhaps a bit of practice for days 5&6.

Made it to The Swan Hotel in New arlesford in very good time for a couple of pints of Guinness with Rob to celebrate a successful ride.

Thanks again Rob, a massive help today. Have a great Birthday 👍

Onto London tomorrow and staying in Kingston upon Thames before the final leg on Sunday to Havens, Southend.

Thank again all for your incredible support. The kind messages are keeping us going 🚴 🚴

Day 3 Complete.

We're half way there!!!

Beautiful scenery, wildlife, autumnal colour throughout Dorset.

So, so good to see Amy and Sue waiting for us in Bournemouth.

Also reached the 3k mark this evening 😊

Physically and mentally drained this evening but the big hills are now behind us.

We keep going, because you guys have been so supportive and generous with your donations. Thank you so much 🙏

And also because Papa Paul is keeping us going. Don't stop with the 20mph winds please Paul ☺️
