    Ok ignore that last message theres now room in the support van on thursday morning, i'll pm you my details but basically you could either park at mine in Cardiff or park at the finish location where I will be picking VW up from, got to leave Nempmn, nephn, niph, the finish location at 4am to get there in plenty of time as the van needs to be loaded up with stuff. Either that or theres room in the van up to Wolves on Sunday.

    Anyway, check your inbox, i'll pm ya my number and we can work out a plan. Alternatively you can get my number from most Ladies toilets and phoneboxes

    Its still all on, but cognation haven't even started work yet on the plans, they've invited me for a meeting with them and Rowan when they start work over the coming months, to discuss what, where etc.

    I've stated a preference for downhill with them but also said were happy to take either depending on what they can accommodate and what is going to provide the best tribute to Kaiss

    Good luck everyone!

    I'd have been there myself if I wasn't forbidden from taking time off work, and my knee wasn't mashed up.

    All the best, keep each other going, and try not to be walking like John Wayne by the end!

    Keep going guys, not far to go now. You got a mention on Radio 2 Drivetime this evening, someone's wife rang in and gave details.

    Gaz is used to being mentioned on the radio. To be fair though, usually it's only to say "please! if you see this man in your local area, for the love of baby jeebus, call the police".

    Good luck with the final day guys!

    Easily the most fun 3 days I've ever had on a bike and one hell of a party at the end, Gaz proved that 201 miles is possible on a 150mm full suss too.

    Total reached £45k lastnight

    Funny you should mention Orange 5's as even the roadies were calling them ;-p

    I forgot that VW managed to lose himself on the first day

    Congratulations to all involved. Much props for raising so much money for a great cause.

    I assume there is now a 200mile trail of destruction with many ditches full of hookers with backwards heads?

    Don't forget that Ste_t and myself also had to block in muttly in a sprint finish at the end, just to stop him overtaking Sarah at the line. Seriously good three days though with team sausage and a party that would make James Belushi proud

    Bloody good fun being part of team sausage. We survived the whole thing and had more fun than anyone else!

    Considering we had 1 tourer, 1 crosser, 4 mtbs (1 that didn't have enough gears on,) 1 p.o.s thing that was absolutely farked, and muttly on a borrowed roadbike wearing full lycra with his nipples hanging out, we were rather spectacular!

    I understand it wasn't just the band making a Racket!

    Great three days - interesting route, 'interesting' weather, f*****g awesome company.

    S**t load of money raised, and a good man remembered.

    Nice.
