Tandem 10,000

We couldn’t be doing this without the help of:

ALTURA

We are delighted to have the support of Altura – the UK’s leading cycle clothing and luggage brand – who are providing us with clothing and panniers for the journey.

GREAT BRITONS

Our challenge was also voted the winner in the seventh round the British Airways Great Britons programme – as a result, British Airways will be flying us and our tandem to Sydney so we can complete the Australia/New Zealand leg of our journey.

ROTARY

We’ve also had huge support from many Rotary Clubs along our route. We can’t thank everyone but certain people really deserve thanks for going the extra mile to help organise our visit/talks and our lodging and high calorie intake – in particular:
