Dear Team,
January is over and momentum now starting to build!
Event 8 Timbo Blizz Cycle Tour
Timbo/Blizz combo is back with a Paul Green to turn company into a crowd.
‘ The Goodies ‘ will be leaving Calais on 5th July and working their way 420 miles West to arrive to arrive in time for the Tour du France finish in San Malo on the 9th at approx 15.00-if you see a 100 cycle pile up on the Tour around 14.30 have a look for Barry on the TV!!
Our boys will take a couple of days to follow the Tour and then the real challenge begins with a 9 hour drinking session on the San Malo/Portsmouth ferry-Ask Milney about that!!
Brilliant challenge again and best of luck to Paul, Barry and Timbo-anyone else interested in joining let me know and will put you in touch.
Event 9 Junior Hadrian's Wall Cycle
Juniors are back with Leah taking on the 174 mile, Route 72, Coast to Coast Hadrian’s Wall Cycleway-Starting day after Timbo on 6th July.
This is a stunning route starting at Ravenglass on the West Coast working its way across the country to finish at South Shields on the East three days later.
Great adventure Leah and best of luck xxx.

The route is from Oxford to Henley following the Thames Path and is 40 miles further than Ben’s longest official race!! Also running for O2e is Tommy Hall who recently completed his first marathon but anything past 26.2 miles will be into the unknown
Sure this event will take Lockey and Tommy well outside their comfort zones-many thanks for choosing O2e and best of luck chaps!!!!!!!!!!!

Welcome to O2e Virgins Robbie, James and Max who will be joining Andy ( aka Shrek ) and pounding the streets of London on 21st April in the best marathon in the world.

Best of luck guys with your training.
Event 3 London to Brighton 100K
Keeping with running-this one is off the scale. Phil ( aka Fly ) got a bit boozed up (no surprises so far) and took up the London to Brighton 100k Challenge Race.
In the words of Fly ‘ it’s only 100k , so what’s that 2 and a bit marathons, further I’ve ever run is 10 miles once, which I hated ‘.
Clock is already ticking on this one a race day is 25th May. Brilliant challenge and DEFINETELY out of your comfort zone-best of luck mate with training and ice baths!!
