Thank You

The whole build up and taking part in the G2P ride has been a fantastic adventure which sits right up there with the best experiences in my life so far.  I have only been able to complete the G2P because of the support of others so I wanted to document my appreciation for all the help.

Richard & Val had to put tonnes of work to get the show on the road so obviously huge thanks to you both.

Gus, your instant response of how you felt I could make the ride helped me actually put my name down to join the trip and you continued to give reassurances for the months before hand so Dankie.

Stacey, you joined me for 50+ mile training rides in the worst of weathers and even threw in killer hills to help my training and never once complained.  Your knowledge, advice and support were invaluable and of course you are the reason I got started on two wheels in the first place, cheers bro.

Joy, you have had to put up with me and my obsessive compulsive disorder for 19 years and yet again you have not only stood by me through my latest obsession but done all you can to support me.  No wonder I love you.

Thanks to all the other riders from the G2P, the atmosphere was awesome for the whole weekend.  Extra thanks have to go to Paul, Ben, Matt and Carl who just seemed to be able to keep going at the fantastic pace without relent to the point that it felt like you dragged me along with you at times so thanks for not dropping me lads.

Goes without saying that we couldn’t have done it without the support vans so huge thanks to Val, Gerald, Ceri & Alan for giving up their time to run around after us and enable us all to just get on and ride our bikes.

Last but not least, huge thanks to all the sponsors.  Whilst I took the task on as a personal challenge the knowledge of how my sponsorship was building towards this great cause certainly helped through the months of training and the money raised places another dimension to the significance of completing the ride.  I have been amazed at the generosity out there and really appreciate everyone's support. 

Thank you everyone, it’s been amazing and would not have happened without you.  

This is my last post for this blog so wouldn’t be right if I didn’t include a last link to the sponsorship page.
