My Bro is cycling coast to coast off-road starting tomorrow.

From his FB:
Myself and 3 friends will be forging a defining line across Northern England. Over 3 days we will undertake a classic off road journey covering in the region of 190 miles from West coast to East coast. We will pass through the Lake District , the Yorkshire Dales and the North Yorkshire Moors. We will endure 6 - 8 hours in the saddle each day and face vicious ascents, screaming descents and no doubt experience sore bums!!.

He is doing this to raise funds for a Breast Cancer charity.
MODERATORS: I'm Not asking for anyone here to donate, I just wanted to post about it as I'm proud of him.

I'd like to donate an industrial tub of Sudocrem for your sore botties. If that won't do, take a big jar of Vaseline and don't be afraid to smear it on liberally.

Good luck to your bro and friends; hope they raise a wad of money for this good cause. @y2blade - If you PM me a link to their justgiving page (or whatever they're using for fundraising) I will drop them the price of a few pints, as the cause is close to my heart (family related matters).
Hope they manage to take advantage of Sundays tail wind .

Thanks for the well wishes, They started this morning.
Any updates I'll post them up.

Anyone interested, they completed the route in three days as planned...had some terrible weather but enjoyed every mile of it.

They raised £1500 for Breakthrough Breast Cancer...to say I'm very proud is an understatement.
