Meet the team from West Brom!

While our other teams have made a start on the cycle relay, making it to York earlier today (after 2 punctures on the way!), we are still in training and preparation mode ready for our big start on Sunday 13th.  Today the team from West Bromwich Park Inn were making their way to Telford to have their bikes here ready to start on Sunday, so being good team players we offered to meet them in Wolverhampton to lead them into Telford, we couldn't have them getting lost!  Lucja, Will & Ande made the most of the sun and cycled the 18miles to meet the West Brom team led by Peter, who arrived slightly muddier for the experience full of high spirits.  We took over the leading and took them back to Telford through some rather undulating terrain, so much so we had to pull into The Crown in Codsall for a cold beer!  Suitably refreshed we got back on the bikes and hit the road again, a tough ride back through the hills, with some of the team resorting to getting off the bikes to walk up some of the hills (until they saw me out with the camera that is).  Making it back to Telford safe and sound, our car wash team gave all our bikes a jet wash after all the muddy canal riding and we sat back and enjoyed the last of the sun having a delicious dinner with cold beers all round.  Great effort from all the team, particularly West Bromwich team that had not cycled that far before, or even cycled together yet as a team.  Until Sunday until we meet again!
