2 years in and I still regret giving Roger Cowton the xl T-shirt ๐
On 25th and 26th September 2020 we are aiming to complete a continuous 24hour cycle ride around Carlisle.
We hope as many people will help us by having a go at riding one of the sections with us ๏ฟฝ

Weโve both had chance to recover from the 24hr ride and have spent time thinking about all the amazing people that helped us. We wanted to add to the personal messages of thanks with a very heartfelt public thank you. So here goes THANK YOU to;
Dianne, Rhona and all the staff at The Crown for letting us use the pub as a base and providing fab food
MSB Signs for the amazing banners, posters, signs and stickers
Backstreet Bikes for looking after our bikes and the amazing photos
Outdoor Providions for the fabulous eco friendly energy bars
Henry Bakes for the delicious tray bakes
There are too many support riders to mention individually but special thanks to the Orange Wednesday riders who kept us going overnight and to crew that came round the Hethersgill loop. You guys smashed it. ๐ตโโ๏ธ
Mentioning the overnight slot, weโve got to say thanks to Gav and Titch for looking after base camp, hard work staying in a pub and not having a pint.
THANK YOU ALL
Weโre still collecting in more donations so if anyone wants to add to our total there is a donate button elsewhere on this thread or use Just Giving https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/charitycycle20
By the way, we think that the total mileage covered by all the riders is over 1800 which is about the same as the distance from London to Moscow
