15-18/09/2011 - C2C From Whitehaven to Sunderland.

 


Crowds gather on the front at St Bees to wave off the team at the start of its mammoth journey

 

Meanwhile the team actually begins its journey from Stonehouse Farm St Bees

 

And after a short journey to Whitehaven they dip their back wheels in the Irish Sea

 

Day two already and Ray takes the biscuit (and a banana and some sandwiches) as he arrives first at Carrigill

 

The rest of the party eventually catches up with him

 

And then it's a long, long climb

 

Breakfast at the Old Vicarage, Rookhope on the last day

 

Preparing to leave Rookhope - cyclists and support team

 

The harbour at Sunderland as the team's arrival is awaited

 

Our heroes!

 

And some of the cyclists who didn't make it
