    I would happily marry into that family, if she was mine.

    The view from behind her must be awesome!

    I think that this quote from the comments section pretty much sums up my feelings on the matter -

    "So, a celebrity airhead with no discernible talent is going on an all expenses paid trip to America to ride a bike for three hours a day. And it's all for "charridee". Nope, can't see the story here. Top marks to those who are doing it for real, but the headline story here is nonsense. Why do we buy into this stuff?"

    I wanted to emphasise my respect for those who are doing it for real, but otherwise, spot on.
    The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.
    I am not sure. You have no chance.

    Oh, I think you're gonna get beheaded!

    From an American POV, you're all Royal (pains) because of your abuse of the pronunciation of the Engrish language!!!

    Would love to do it, wheel hugging pippa for a few hours would be more than welcome.

    One question - shouldn't it really be called RAA

    How does it work when people "raise money for charity" like this? Are they selling advertising space on the participants' clothes? Will they be followed every step of the way by someone shaking a bucket?

    And when someone famous does something a bit outside their field "for charity", how does it work? Can anyone here remember sticking a couple of quid in the tin because that bloke off the telly did that thing that time?

    Americans are cute when they try to teach us grammar.

    Yes I believe they refer to it as grammarizing.
