Last year I felt Martin and I needed a challenge - must have been trying to avoid the mid life crisis - and also thought raising some money would be a good idea so I came across a 350km bike ride in Tanzania for October 2013 that we could take part in and raise money on behalf of the Cancer Polio Research Fund.  When I first spoke to them they said that it was a ride anyone could do as long as they did a bit of training so I thought ok, we have a year we can do this.  

We bought some gear so we could try and look the part and we started training!  Our first ride was around 20km and it was hard but we kept going!  Well a year later and over 2500 km cycled we are as ready as we are going to be.

The time has gone way too fast and it is incredible to think we are off in 4 days.
