All ready for the off...[/caption]We've news of our intrepid trio from Newcastle House who you may remember were off to tackle the Coast to Coast cycle route earlier this month.

The End![/caption]There was a complete team effort from Steven Clark, Kevin Graham and Fred Napier of the Day Despatch team, who cycled from Whitehaven in Cumbria home to Tynemouth in Tyne and Wear from Friday 1st to Sunday 3rd June.
I'm happy to report a successful completion of the 140 mile trek and there were smiling faces at the end.
I'm rather intrigued they seem to have found an ice cream van selling a canny bevvy or two! ;)

Steve, Fred... and Kevin with canny bevvy in hand![/caption]The trio were assisting Steve's target for the From S to N Community Week bike ride in a couple of weeks time. Steve will be taking to the saddle again safe in the knowledge their efforts have netted £1,345 in sponsorship thus far. Here's their Just Giving page if you'd like to add a little top up :)
Steve, Kevin and Fred are fundraising for Newcastle's Marie Curie Hospice and I hear a small crowd of family friends and colleagues braved the cold to welcome them back. Here's hoping the weather improves and the crowd swells to cheer Steve and colleagues when they ride into town having completed the 375 miles from Southampton!
An excellent effort and good preparation for Steve's participation in From S to N.
