Having completed our first challenge on 10 July 2011, Jamie and Neil have decided to continue fundraising for Help for Heroes & Starlight charities, by static cycling in various shops across Hampshire, Wiltshire and Dorset. Jamie is also training to cycle stage 19 of the 2011 Tour de France (Modane to Alpe d'Huez) in the future. We hope to raise £20,000

All donations no matter what the size, will be graciously received and further add to our enthusiasm to raise even more money for our chosen charities. Donations can be made securely by following the links below. Thank you for your interest in our challenge, please pop back from time to time, to see our progress.

First Team Ride

Shortly after 2pm today, Alex, Neil, Pete & Jamie set off from Blandford on our first team ride. Alex was riding his brand new Scott CR1 Pro bike. We rode one of Neil`s favourite 30 mile routes taking in some of the lovely countryside Dorset has to offer around the Tarrants. The ride was very enjoyable & towards the end we were peddling along at a reasonable pace all taking turns at the front. Minor issues had be overcome, 1 puncture, 1 chain & one uneccesary halt by one of the riders (the author) who thought he was about to have a heart attack, well his heart rate monitor displayed as much. Moral of the tale, listen to your body.
