Coast to coast and Lent in a Tent

Si has just completed a Welsh coast on the road in aid of the Kidney Wales Foundation. 215 miles and 13,500 feet of climbing in around 15 hours, on his own as well on a pretty windy old day. If you would like to make a donation, Si has a Just Giving page here. In other fundraising news, Andy and Del will be spending Lent in a tent... 43 days in a tent outside their house in order to raise money for the Special Olympics for adults with learning disabilities; they also have another Just Giving page here. Andy is a top chap who once rode the Dyfi Enduro on a fixed wheel cross bike with a bald rear tyre, and Del is a veteran of many tandem and wild camping trips with Andy, so I suspect this all may seem like perfectly normal behaviour to them. And in 6 weeks or so Dave Buchanan will attempting the longest continuous mountain bike ride ever, Cardiff to North Wales and back again... offroad... without stopping. More news on that one as it gets closer.
