Monte Carlo or Bust

Monte Carlo or Bust has a certain familiarity to it. Because I'm old (the wife's words), I can remember the original film about cars racing across Europe and finishing in Monte Carlo - starring Terry Thomas, Tony Curtis and Peter Cook, just to mention a few.

We, (Richard, Gary, Steve, Paul and myself not forgetting Barry our support driver) rather than being in cars, have made the brave if not slightly crazy decision to cycle (as in bicycle, not motorcycle) this original films route to Monte Carlo starting 12th June 2015.


Now, some may say there are comparisons to be made from the film cast and ourselves i.e.
Who is the scoundrel?
Who is the good looking one? obviously me
Who are the gadget men? and so on ...


On the other hand you may think that we're more likened to characters from the Wacky Races....



I'll leave it up to you to decide, but suggestions would be appreciated (be kind, we have feelings you know)

Oops, nearly forgot ... if you're at a loose end from 12th June - 21st June, we are still looking for another support driver to help with navigation - guaranteed to have some laughs

The reason for doing this is simple ... our objective to raise money for our two chosen charities - "Leonard Cheshire Disability" and "Leukaemia & Lymphoma Research". 

A Virgin Money site is set up, where you can make your valued donations regardless of how large or small and all moneys received will be equally split between out two chosen charities

Don't forget to donate - you're our motivation!

The training starts NOW ...

Thanks
Mike
