    For some strange reason I signed up to do the big bike challenge this year and tomorrow morning will be cycling to reading to cheer the boys on. If anybody is driving up the a33 and sees me in a bright yellow high vis coat please feel free to give me a toot!! That's if I'm still on two wheels and not in a ditch asleep..

    Here's for a good day out and hopefully 3 more points!!

    Great work - really wanted to do it but couldn't get my ass organised in time. :( Hope the wind isn't too bad.

    I imagine that the roads will be clogged, so be careful out there and good luck to you and the team.

    I was 6th from the left and managed it in 3hrs 40. What made the day better was the result and the atmosphere from the away support as usual.

    Looking forward to next years trip already.

    I am 6th from the left. It was a cold and frosty start but in the end the sun came up and it was a good day. Took 3hrs40 to get there and the effort was worth it.

    Well done all concerned, the cyclists and the team, sadly it looks as if Reading won't be the option next season!
