Success? 1099K's completed.


That's right. almost 1100k cycled run or walked, in total by the combined efforts of 70 people,mostly recovering people and some members of the public in the Haringey/Hackney/Islington areas, and almost £500 raised. The most noticeable feature though was the vibe of togetherness of the public and people in recovery. Total strangers were willing to help us, and work with their own children in tow to increase our achievement. Some noticeable feats of endurance and pushing back personal boundaries were achieved, most notably 2 people who had not cycled more than 10 miles previously who both exceeded 35 miles. The course was hilly and not easy to cycle. A number of children including the local youth joined us. Next we will attempt to bring more areas of east london on board.
