So although there have been a few ideas sloshing around for the cycling challenge for 2011 a final leap into the unkown has been made by gaining entry into the Act 1 Etape Du Tour. We hope to have an old friend of the Tour De Amateurs join us for this - Rich and a new member - Matt.
More details to come but in the manner of previous posts here are the numbers:
