Clock to Rock - Big Ben, London to the rock of Gibraltar 2nd -19th September 2011

Paul Beven & Jane Kennet are cycling to Gibraltar for the British Heart Foundation. Our target is to raise £12,000. We are hoping to keep you up to date with our training and fund raising progress so far via this blog. Signals and stamina permitting with any luck we can post along the actual journey too. Sponsor us now by clicking this link to our JustGiving page or email me if you prefer. LATEST NEWS - Despite the BHF postponing their official trip until sometime in 2012 we are pressing ahead with an independent trip of our own although the BHF are providing some assistance to us to help us on our way.

We are underway.....

Hello, very sorry that we are almost on day 3 and no blog posts yet.  Its been rather busy. Tomorrow evening I am aiming to write about our first three days in more detail with photos and hopefully some video but for now we are all concerned with getting some sleep. Until this very moment we have been on the move since leaving from home and Big Ben on Friday morning. The ferry crossing and an invitation for dinner at a friends tonight it would have been very rude to write the blog during dinner. I think we abused the hospitality of our hosts as it was turning up with dirty washing! So tomorrow is the day to try and catch up.

Suffice to say we are all ok and doing well. From tomorrow there will be 7 of the original crowd who left Big Ben on Friday and we are all hoping to be the ones to finish in Gibraltar.So far so good. Tomorrow will be our longest day of the 3 so far with 105 miles so it will be late in the day before we can write much.

So for now i must sleep and make the most of our recovery time. Until tomorrow....Bon Nuit.

Good night from Mayenne, France.

Jane & Team Healix.
