Day 2

Day 2 began bright and sunny in Lympstone surrounded by strage people in head overs. The team, now complete with the arrival of its secret weapon Al Moyle began the long journey to Monmouth. The ride started well however, the GPS was damaged and we were, on occasion sent the wrong way, damn technology....... The miles were stacking up, the sun was blistering but the team pushed on. Crofty had now got the measure of his tri bike (In the bike world this is like having a bow and arrow instead of a rifle on the range. We hit Bristol during rush hour which was simillar to riding through hell. It was during this stage that the teams secret weapon came a cropper and fell of his trusty stead, in full view of drivers stuck in a jam, obviously he was pushed. At around the 1800hrs mark the team made the pilgramage into Wales and pushed onto Monmouth. Special mention has to be made to our support staff who have have been busy collecting donations on our behalf and have had excellent results.
