After Alistair’s reluctant decision to join the support crew instead of risking a permanent knee problem, Matt had to cycle the rest of the way to Kendal from Dumfries on his own.
Now that Alistair cannot cycle, we have managed to source another cyclist to keep Matt company on the rest of the journey. Jonathan Price is now going to try and help Matt make his way down to Land’s End. Good luck to them both!
The team enjoyed a rather scary night of old timers karaoke at our backup campsite!

Well you guys seem to have been having a hard time and you sound like you might need some cheering up so i thought i would send you some jokes-
A tandem rider is stopped by a police car. “What’ve I done, officer?” asks the rider.
“Perhaps you didn’t notice sir, but your wife fell off your bike half a mile back . . .”
“Oh, thank God for that,” says the rider - “I thought I’d gone deaf!”
Jack and Jill have just climbed Le Alp de Huez, one of the steepest peaks in the Alps on their tandem.
“Phew, that was a tough climb” said Jack, leaning over, breathing hard. “That climb was so hard, and we were going so slow, I thought we were never going to make it.”
“Yeah, good thing I kept the brakes on,” said Jill, “or we’d have slid all the way back down!”
“I’ve really had it with my dog,” said the first guy to his neighbor. “He’ll chase anyone on a bicycle”
“Hmmm, that is a problem,” said the neighbor. “What are you thinking of doing about it?”
“Guess the only answer is to confiscate his bike!”
Hope you dont run into to many problems today
Best of luck
