It's taken over a week to recover and one of our riders has been pretty bedridden since (we were that committed), but we did it.
2,400 miles covered, then the 24 hour race done (42nd out of 160 in our interestingly titled 'open men' category). Almost £3000 raised for charity (and still growing - come on you can still contribute if you haven't yet). A big thanks once again to our main sponsors Saab.

Ok, so I was hoping the first blog post for our 2400 mile charity challenge would be more upbeat. But right now - after chucking myself head first into it and doing the 40 mile round-trip commute to Teddington and back on Day 1 - I've ridden in again this morning and I'm in trouble.
Or rather my knee is and has swollen up wildly and feels as creaky sore as the rusty tin man from the cod liver oil adverts - before the cod liver oil kicked in. Even after smearing almost an entire tube of Volteral painkiller gel on the offending knee, I had to admit defeat to the ligament gods and sheepishly call my wife up and ask her to drive in and give me a lift home.
I'm hoping a few days rest will do the trick but one thing's for sure, this isn't going to be a walk in the proverbial. What have we got ourselves into?

A week has passed since our Summer Event and we've just about recovered! Many thanks to those who came to Teddington - we're sure you'll agree that it was a fantastic day.
