The countdown begins

Yesterday was our last office day. Today has been spent collecting hire vehicles, equipment and puzzling over how everything is going to fit in!

Tomorrow morning we depart for Wales… via the local bakery to collect nearly 600 very large cakes that will be the desserts for the competitors and support team each night.

We are very excited about meeting the competitors, marshals and support team on Sunday in Conwy. See you there!

For anyone who wants to follow all the drama of the race as it unfolds, we will be updating the website each day with details of the route, editorial reports, video and photos. The updates may come at unusual times as there is no internet access at any of our overnight camps. Just keep checking the website for the latest updates.

Check out our exclusive new window stickers! Only 150 have been made and they will only be going to the competitors and support team
