We've done it!

After 67 days, 4630kms cycled and over £10,000 raised, we made it to Gibraltar on 11th October.

And we even got on the news...

Fantastic to complete the journey. It's been incredible as has the support.

Full update to come, but now the beach is calling...

Penultimate day, milestones and not the final post

Our penultimate day on the bikes, as we prepare for tomorrow's final few kms to Gibraltar. Humph stormed past the 4000km mark today. Considering he only signed up initially for a couple of 'easier weeks' in northern France, this is quite a achievement. Especially when you take into account the dodgy knees and weight of beard.

And we are now over the £10,000 mark for donations. Thanks to a wonderful surge online this week including a number of amazing people sponsoring twice. I can't thank you all enough. And the cash donations keep coming in from people we meet on the road, who see the shirts and hear the story behind the journey.

So Gibraltar tomorrow and the end of an amazing ten week adventure.

I'm not ready to wrap this up just yet, but suffice to say that it has been incredible on many fronts.

Bring in the Rock!

£10,000 raised!

As we zero in on Gibraltar, with one and a half days riding to go, I'm absolutely delighted to say we've just hit the magical £10k!!

Unbelievable. The pain as I lie here trying to straighten my back out in Fuegirola's finest campsite, is totally worth it.

Thank you to everyone involved in what is proving to be a marvellous final drive to the line. You are all stars.

Sincere and most humble thanks,

Charlie and Humph

2 Days To Go..

Or for text donations of up to £10, text CHVG77 plus the amount to 70070
