Well done RJ; the charity will be grateful for your donation and for gift aiding it too. www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=Pdzfte7ubxkIf you want to see some of the crazy things the guys get up to when they set about raising money. RAAM = Ride Across AMerica - a relay race of over 3,000 miles on pedal bikes and handbikes - in 8 days. I know many of the guys you see training in the video. There are several of them that are also planning on completing an Iron Man triathlon this year too www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7y9HPnHeBsWhat is an Ironman? 2.4 miles (3.86Km) open water swim 112miles (180Km) cycle ride 26miles (42Km) Marathon on foot All raced in one go and in less than 17 hours A punishing task for a person with all of their limbs in one piece; in my view, this is clear evidence that they're all suffering from brain injury too www.truespirit.org.uk/index.html

Bike finally on the road, after a delay due to unseasonably nice climbing weather, and a wait for the tax disc! All is well, even my other half thinks it's pretty comfy too (tho rear footrests a bit close to Motad... I wondered what the smell was!). Fork seals holding, handling & engine v smooth, single disc at front surprisingly good! Worth all the hassle, and a good £500 bike.
Ta again for Mudguard and help!
