Hello All,
Welcome to our Blog! Hopefully over the next few months we will be able to catalogue our progress as we prepare for, and ultimately complete, our ride from John O'Groats to Land's End on the tandem.
We are completing the ride in aid of Marie Curie Cancer Care, a fabulous organisation that helped care for Joules' Mum through her illness.
Please tune in as we go along with our adventure, and please donate generously. There will be a Just Giving site set up so we'll let you know about that when we can.
Cheers for now!

About Us
- Richard & Joules
- Joules & Richard are both around mid-life crisis age and live between Hayle and Helston in Cornwall, or Narnia as it is to us. Joules has three boys, George 19, Oliver 17, and Harry 14, our biggest support team. Unfortunately Joules lost her Mum, best friend and confident in September 2009 to cancer. The Marie Curie nursing team in Cornwall made it possible for the last months to be spent in as much comfort as possible in her own home. This has given Joules the determination to make a mark on life and to give something back. Joules has been a Chiropodist for 11 years and is very privilaged as she loves her job. Richard married Joules in 2008 and moved down from Nottinghamshire. The wedding was organisied in EIGHT DAYS! we had to fit it in so that Joules' Mum would be well enough to enjoy the day, the best decision either of us has ever made. Richard now works for Marks & Spencers in Hayle and is very grateful for the support they are offering on this trip. Richard and Joules first rode a tandem in the New Forest in 2006, Richard was dubious to begin with, but has been completely converted ever since.
