We are now drawing extremely close to D-day and final preparations are taking form. We have been overwhelmed by the generosity of local and national companies, who have allowed this charity event to take place.
We have been given places to stay, equipment to use on the ride along with first aid supplies and maintenance equipment for the bikes in order to keep us up and running.
One of our biggest issues was gaining a charity cheque to present to the North West Police Benevolent Fund following this mammoth fund raising event, we were extremely lucky that TC Communications came through and very kindly designed and printed a large presentation cheque for us.

Wes has been beavering away and fully servicing all of our bikes to make sure they are ship shape before we leave and hopefully minimize any issues we have on route.

St johns Ambulance have also in conjunction with Cardiac Services loaned us a automated external defibrillator to cover any eventualities

Cycle Store have supplied us with numerous pieces of cycle clothing and maintenance equipment, which we are extremely grateful for, especially due to the change in weather, this will be used in conjunction with the equipment supplied by Niton and Police Supplies to keep us warm and waterproof

The charity raffle has also raised over £300 to date and we are extremely thankful to all companies who have kindly donated prizes for this

And finally thank you to everyone who has donated to the fund, we are only £195 short of our target of £5000 and i am sure a final push over the next few days will allow us to reach this target.

We will be keeping you updated throughout th
