Getting real close to finalising the details on this. It will be on the evening of the 29th March 2013 and will most likely be from T13 to a place to be confirmed in Dublin. In all its over 100 miles with pit stops along the way and for Clic Sargent - Children with Cancer. Some of the clubs either side of the border are getting involved and we are hoping to raise some good cash for the kids, and raise awareness of BMX in Ireland. Just a heads up and asking if anyones interested in participating in either riding, or supporting at whatever level.

Shyte the bed! that's a long way mate! best of luck with it...........i've done the London to Brighton a few years back on one of my old school BMXs and it's great fun but bloody hard work! make sure you fit the longest seat post you can find, it's all about comfort and not how it will look :daumenhoch:

Adam, your support will be massively appreciated and a few beers in Dublin the day after would be ace. After the ride you might even be able to outdrink me. :D
Yeah Rob, we did Ally Pally to Brighton last year which ended up being around 85 miles after including the miles to actually get to the start line. We wanted to push the boundaries a bit more this year as we like to earn our sponsorship monies. :crazy2: Its a massive task but if we can make a difference to a child who is fighting cancer, then a few hours of pain is well worth it.
Team shot before the ride. Monkian actually did it with us but he turned up fashionably late so isn't in this picture.

It ain't no hill. You could fookin basejump off it. lol
-

-
I was close to tears on that Hill... :'(
-
You did it and survived to tell the tale. I salute you. :daumenhoch:
-
i think i may have blasphemed while walking up that hill, and definately did when i reached the summit! ;D
-
I had a good time chuckling at Beard all the way up. His bike nearly went basejumping without a parachute. :LolLolLolLol:
-
I enjoyed the freefall into Brighton a few miles later... though that stretch from the top of Ditchling Beacon before the decent into Brighton was really tough, the wind was a killer.
I have my medal, rider number and a copy of the group photo... all ready to be framed for my office at home.
Great Night Out :4_17_5:
-
would have love to of done this if I was fit enough and had a bike, fresh air, beautiful scenery and people who actually say hello to you without wanting to mug you!!!!! Make sure you take a brolly :)
Il meet you in temple bar :D
-
Think London to Brighton was plenty far enough for me on a BMX, but much respect for organising this :daumenhoch:
The ditching beacon was a fooker, but for me the worst bit was the sneaky hill that popped up right before the very end in the town - just at the moment my morning dump finally decided it was ready to appear :D
I might have a go at the land's end - John o groats next year but will be on a bike with gears (don't have enough holiday to do it on a BMX ;D)
