Can we do it?

After talking with a colleague from work Kim Raw who also rediscovered his cycling legs we decided that we will give this challenge a go and now plan to do the ride around August this year. We have decided to set up this blog as a way of documenting our training and preparation to show that ordinary geezers that push pens for a living can achieve this kind of thing. As a point of reference the Team Aldi blog http://teamaldi.blogspot.com/ has been a great help and inspiration to us and we also hope this blog will help and inspire others.
