Coast to Cast ride completed. Not without incident. I managed to come off the bike 4 times in total. Gashed knee, bruised hip and elbow. Finished with virtually no brakes but finish it I did. We had heavy rain, sleet, massive hail storms and at the end of day 2 we had over an inch of snow. We took shelter but the snow settled as we were on high ground so we completed the final six miles through snow on the ground and driving snow still falling. Huge thank you to the team of lads who kept me going through the tough times, to the on-course bookmakers who came up trumps again with sponsorship and to everyone on here who supported me. I see from Luke's website that there are donations from xmoneyx, collywobble, squeeze firmly, sixtwosix, Makybe Diva and some anonymous ones. Thank you so much guys, it really kept me going when I thought I couldn't go on. We have raised well over £1,000 for Luke's wheelchair appeal. I'll be seeing the northern bookies at Chester and York in the next few weeks and will see if I can top it up even further. I'll be at Towcester tomorrow if anyone wants to come and add to the donations there
 All the best, David Hughes (T/a Bob Hughes). |

I cycle in the Wicklow mountains so know that 150 miles over the Pennines is tough. Thanks for being so kind and caring. |

I assume he cycled the 150 miles on a proper road bike saddle (an arse hatchet) and won't be able to sit down for weeks.

kincsem - you're getting a little too much pleasure in wasnot's discomfort for me....I was considering getting a bike, but you've put me right off !!!!.....very generous of you by the way.

When I saw that you were betting on the ride with your twelve friends and it was a staggered start (in essence a handicap) and you were paying a fifth the odds 1-2 I thought that I would pass.....
