A big hello and welcome from all the team

We the team are made up of members of the Royal Navy and civilians who are currently serving at Maritime Commissioning Trials and Assessment (MCTA) based in Portsmouth Dockyard. MCTA has a chosen charity The Friends of Oncology and Radiotherapy Trust ( FORT ) based at St Marys Hospital Portsmouth . In an effort to raise money this year we are going to cycle from John o Groats to Lands End including Faslane Naval Base (Helensburgh) and Devonport Naval Base (Plymouth) in our trip.We are planning to cover the 1030 mile trip in a two week period commencing on 7th September. On this blog we will hopefully post our progress daily including points of interest for families, friends and sponsors.

Sponsors thankyou

Well, it is getting closer and now the team are in training for this demanding journey. Shame it seems to be raining most days but I don't believe we will get through the two week event without seeing any wind or rain. This leads me to thank Gore who have supplied us with waterproof cycling jackets and base layers to keep us dry and warm. Also thanks to Specsavers of Southsea for providing prescription sunglasses for the more visually challenged members of the team.
