It was a glorious sunny afternoon as we welcomed Chris and the other cyclists as they arrived at Cardiff Bay. After four days and 260 miles, the team had endured persistent rain, gale force winds, hypothermia, seemingly endless uphills, accidents and landslides (yes, really) blocking the way, detours - but also experienced the kindness of strangers, sunshine, incredible landscape, team spirit, a little dance from passers-by, well deserved drinks after a day’s ride and the cheering welcoming committee in Cardiff Bay, of course.

See below for some comments of the last day from Chris:

Halfway up the road over Storey Arms, from Brecon to Merthyr, along slow but beautiful hills which tests the resolve on Day 4 but also made us realize that we have been riding into some kind of fitness. Thanks to the proper cyclist in the team, Paul Jones, who suggested the road over the top and to Steve Sulley who beasted it to the top. Amazing views and then at the top we met Anne and Jean who had been dropped off at the top and were walking back to Brecon. They donated £3 and gave us a little dance. Amazing descent into Merthyr and then a quick McDonalds and meet up with the others who joined us for the final push to Cardiff on the Taff Trail.

We’d like to congratulate all the riders for a fantastic effort and wish them a good recovery. Also thanks to everyone that has supported the cyclists and St Davids Hospice - you can still donate at the Just Giving page and help reach the £20,000 target (we’re not far from it now).
