The final day.
Good day of sun and a hilly but pleasant ride to Land's End from Bodmin... Kernow's finest- Andy and Mick- there to greet me and help share the bottle of bubbly they'd brought to celebrate... Thank you guys :)

"The word adventure has become overused. For me, adventure is when it all goes wrong. That's when adventure begins."
After the first day, set in hell after it had frozen over, I did not view this as an adventure.
I'll look back and think of it with a wry smile though. Thank you Caz for making me smile when all felt like it was falling apart.
This blog is a heartfelt thankyou. From donating, to voting on the glitter poll, to your messages of support, to tracking the ride and for even just reading my ramblings... Thankyou.
All of this support has helped me complete the ride come hell or high water... Or snow, or blizzards, or sleet, or ice, or gales, or punctures....
This ride was for Claire.
What I have done is nothing compared to the battle that she fought... Always with hope and always with strength... you inspired me to do this.
Claire gave me the inspiration for this, but Danie, without your love, support and strength, I wouldn't have been able to complete this and in doing so, raise over £12,000 to help others who may so sadly find themselves in a similar place.
So here's to glittery beards, snowy hills and sunny hills and long days in the saddle... And to Claire, wherever you are.
P.s. And if you were wondering what the most pointless item i brought with me was, first prize goes to 1.5kg d-lock. (And the key I left behind in Bristol)
