Just to a change here is a picture of someone with bikes instead of running. Well done to Peter and Tanya for completing this 170 mile bike ride over 3 days for the Alzheimer's Society.
In Peter's word:
Well we did it, 170 miles Coast to Coast.
- Day one 55 miles - Starting at Workington with the traditional dipping of our bikes in the sea. The weather was cold & wet, cycling through wonderful countryside, passing Lake Windermere via Derwentwater with some very steep hills & on to our first overnight stop at Kendal.
- Day two, 54 miles, the weather was a lot warmer & the sun actually came out!!! We cycled through the Yorkshire National Park & it was very hilly again to our second overnight stop at Richmond.
- Day three, 61 miles, our longest day, weather cold & misty & very very hilly through the Dales & North Yorkshire Moors to the finish at Sandsend near Whitby
This trip was very well organised by the Alzheimer's Society with the help of Discovery Adventure. There were 33 cyclists doing this challenge & between us we have raised £30,000.00 so far. We would like to thank those of you who sponsored us & for those who haven't it's not too late on www.justgiving.com/tanya-edmondson orwww.justgiving.com/petetherunnerandcyclist
