Well done to the six celebrities that cycled the length of Britain. So far they have raised £1,006,509 (correct at 04/03/2010 @ 8:11pm GMT).
They nailed it! In 82 hours, seven celebrities cycled the length of the UK, day and night, scaling 1,000ft peaks, battling icy blizzards and lows of -15C.
Listening to them on the Scott Mills show on BBC Radio 1, was great. I was so happy for them, it made me remember when I did it last year.
You can still sponsor the team by going to http://www.sportrelief.com/whats-on/challenges/cycleteam/donate.
You can watch their entire journey on Thursday 18th March on BBC One at 9pm. Don’t miss it!
