That one top right looks very similar to the one my Nan had when I were a lad !

 I love the variety - TT provide the hardware, expertise and maintenance education but encourage the use of whatever indigenous materials and building techniques are available, which is one of the reasons they're able to build a new facility for just £60.

Missed this on Xmas day.  Hope you aren't too sore!  Have a small donation from me!

Thank you so much! You've taken us to over nineteen toilets, and I always promised to round up to the nearest multiple of £60, so that will make a nice round twenty. So very much appreciated.

Think I'm more sore from the celebratory beverages than the ride itself!

Enjoy the rest of the holidays, and peace, love and happiness for 2021 xxx

Great stuff guys Bogbrush

Ah, a fellow PE fan! Thanks so much for your support, we're now on over £1K in donations and Mrs H is just over three miles of taking us through the 200 miles! It's been absolutely amazing and it's all down to you wonderful kind people, it's made a Christmas we were expecting always to remember for all the wrong reasons into one we'll always remember for the right reasons! xxx

Rendel, I've been refreshing this page for ages hoping you have finished the challenge & survived it, so I could raise 3 cheers to you both. But I guess you've more important recovery and general flop tasks to do than update the page, so I'll just say "hooray, hooray, hooray" now. You've done an amazing thing and lots of arses will be more comfortable now because of the pain you and your wife have put your own through. Not to mention the impact on disease control etc. So a huge "well done"!

Thank you so much friend, cannot overstate how wonderful the support has been. As you correctly assumed, we finished and hit the beer and then got into the round of calls with mates and family we'd ignored all day! It's probably inadvisable to share this but sod it, if you or someone you know has a Facebook account you can see us closing it out here:

Happy Xmas to both of you and don't forget about maintaining an aero position - it's like free speed.

Same to you! I've been trying to draft but the whole of Zwift seems to be people on a cheeky 20k going for maximum burn! However I've just unlocked the Pinarello F8 Dogma so clearly it's going to be a breeze from here...
