    Long time no see Whytepeak :)

    Good luck to all on the CCCCC2CCCCCCCCCCCCCC or whatever you're calling it ;)
  • Tip for anyone catching the train to Conwy; I'm guessing its the train that runs from Chester to Anglesey? I rode Bangor to Cardiff in June and had to catch this service. They usually only lay on 2 coaches. It was the most ridiculously packed train I've ever been on and was lucky to get up front on get me and my bike on. Speaking to someone on the train its always like that.

    Cheers fella, were doing up by coach in the main, the big problem is carrying kit on trains anyway as well as the limited bike spaces. Fortunately I have insider knowledge of the services as I'm a Train Driver with Arriva Trains Wales

    Good thing about the trains though is that they are always on time and quite cheap ;)

  • I just learned that my friends Dad passed away this day last year, so I've put a link on her status about it as she wants people to donate to Cancer Research. Hopefully that will give it a push too
    It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded.

    OMG.

    Less than 2 days to go until this ACTUALLY happens.... 12 Bikeradar folk take on 230 miles of our finest Welsh hills (mountains??!) in aid of Cancer Research UK.

    That's pretty damn cool 8)

    If it were any cooler it would be called Gazlar

    What would be cool though is if all the crudders did the same as the cool Crudders and slipped a few quid into the sponsor pot, we're so close to 2 grand and we'd love to push it on even further for Cancer Research

    Good luck to everyone as it looks like one hell of a ride, and all for a very good cause as well. Just remember when you think you are on your last legs to keep calm and mtfu/wtfu :D . Seriously though I wish I was even remotely fit enough to take something like this on so respect from me for taking on the challenge. Have donated some beer tokens, only wish it was more but as that well known supermarket says every little helps.

  • Hi All,

    An insignificant nobody here. I just want to say a huge thank you to all you crudders (and any non-crudders) that have donated. Once you add on the offline donations we have currently raised over £3000 and once the gift aid amount is added on, we have broken the £4000 mark.

    This is absolutely fantastic and makes it worth all the pushing, sweating, and pain I endured. I hope you are all massively proud of yourselves for making it worth our while.

    Remember if you haven't donated but would like to, the page is still open, http://www.justgiving.com/cc2cc and you can also read our experiences at www.crudcatcherc2cc.com

    Once again thank you so much. You are all truly fantastic.

    Go big or go home.
