FEAT 4 PETE ACCOMPLISHED!!
Thank you to everybody who has supported us on the Feat4Pete Challenge. We have been overwhelmed by the amount of good wishes we received. Thanks also to all those who sponsored us to complete the trip. All money raised will go towards the cost of the incubator. Although this site only notes £390, the total raised is in the region of £1100. Over a pound a mile.
Special thanks have to go to some great people who supported us both along the way.
Ann, Bob and Elaine McFerran - thank you so much to the three of you for allowing us to undertake this trip in Peter's name. We cant think of another cause we would have wanted to do it more for. Also thank you for being there at the start, the middle, and (via phone) at the end.
Gilli's mum, dad and Paul - For all the support and help you have given, for the bacon butty, coffee, hot water bottles, heaters and continual motivation.
To Fran and Dan for being at Chester Services even with a poorly foot
To everyone who saw us off at the start - Ann, Bob, Elaine, Mum, Dad, Paul, Claire, Oliver, Charlie, Tom and Melanie, Fran and Dan, Mike Bowen, Andy, Leanne and Michael, the dogs, the Chronicle and anyone else who I may have forgotten !
To Helen, Pete, Dani and Neil in Glasgow for the warm bed, the good food (that ensured good bowel movements!), and for allowing us to relax
To Dan and his mum for storing our bikes safely and letting us know where the cheapest petrol in Scotland is
To Lene and Cynog for meeting up with us in Llanfairpwllgwyn and giving us the encouragement to carry on.
And the nice man in the layby in the rain who offered us coffee
Thank you to all fundraisers who have helped along the way
The journey went well - news will be posted soon
