  • I don't understand the brit thing with the charities.
    you cycle somewhere and other people donate to a charity? how is that connected?

    In our case, we're riding for charities that mean something to us. Some of the charity events (go climb a mountain, trek the jungle etc) seem a bit like a holiday that someone else pays for, we're hopeful that most people will realise that this is actually quite a difficult challenge that is certainly no holiday and will require some serious effort and quite possibly pain on our part.

    If you want to know why we choose our charities, have a look at the two links above.

    I guess the connection is that you put yourself out doing something hard and people respect that by giving you money - in this case though, the money goes to charities rather than you.
