    I’ve signed up again.
    I must say I had a great couple of days and believe it or not it is not as hard as you would imagine.
    The camaraderie of Team Addicks was unbelievable and it gave us all the drive and enthusiasm to get through it.
    This year I hope all the team will return and we can add to our numbers.
    It’s well worth the entry money and for such a fantastic cause.
    @Tracey is our leader

    Really wanted to do this but sadly the amount of sponsorship required to take part is far beyond my remit. So is self financing the event, so if anyone wants to buy a bike. :(

    I’m absolutely gutted mate, I was really looking forward to you joining the team.
    I would have sponsored you and I’m quite sure a few other ‘Lifers’ would have.

    I will put it out there who would sponsor @TCE ?

    At worse you could always sell one of your dogs ! 😉

    I started filling the form out when I realised how much you have to raise, not being at work now I can't keep on asking friends and family year on year and I can't self finance it, although I'm injured at the moment I had reached a certain level of fitness and was looking forward to it. (I won't comment on the last bit ;) )

    Please don’t worry about reaching your target. I arrange alot of fundraising events to help everyone reach their targets. We have two games already to fundraise at and we hosted the pub quiz last year which the Marriott are happy to do again. As long as you can help at the events it will go towards your sponsorship target. Also we have shirt sponsors which will also go towards your target. We would love you to be part of the Team.

    If you've signed up correctly, @Tracey will get an email to approve you to the group, which I've no doubt she will!

    There is a back up van that takes your day rusksack and you have access to it on each stop and another van takes your bigger bag.

    Sounds like the van is the easiest way to ride :wink:
