Thanks Heather! I'm genuinely humbled by the donations we have received. Thank you everybody.
Ok, so heres a little status update.
Ed is definitely coming along which I'm hoping will help pass the time and make things a bit easier.
The groom's uncle and auntie are putting us up in Derby on night 1. I haven't finalised somewhere to stay on Thursday night yet (Lancaster) but I've found a really nice looking campsite that should fit the bill.
I also haven't finalised the route for day 3 yet but I've got plenty of time. Well, 1.5 days anyway.
The weather is looking a little challenging. It is likely to be pouring with rain for day 2 and 3 with a blustery wind that whilst mainly coming from the South will probably cause a few problems for those with racks and luggage on their bikes. Naming no names!
I'm getting really excited about the whole thing and am feeling reasonably confident about the first two days. I rode 159mi in a day recently and my legs felt fine afterwards and definitely would have been fine to go out and do another 100 on the following day. The only problem is that day 3 will be a total unknown to me. I have never riden three days in a row. There is only one way to find out!
