D4: Derby-H89, Luton

110 miles

Last day, a treat up at 5.30 to start even earlier to coordinate arrival time

Finally, a pink sunrise as we head south, limbs complaining aggressively for the first hour

Familiar landscape of the gently rolling Midlands, cut hedges & farms

A cheer rings out as we pass into the National Forest & then Northamptonshire, penultimate county

Some atrocious motorist behaviour today; more fool you!

Final stop at a garden centre outside Northampton thinking of the group finale

Darkness falls again and it is head down, immune to pain, knowing we can finish...& there it is!

A swarm of 17 hove into view whooping & cheering with a mass lift of bikes above heads

A predictably unpredictable odyssey of highs & lows with an amazing team

Thank you to all our crew & well-wishers; we turned the pedals but you greased the wheels...

If you dream big, miracles can happen; hard work is the oldest trick in the book!
