The whole team showed incredible spirit when faced with the gruelling challenge. Mark Francis fell off his bike 20 yards from the finish on day one - and broke his finger. but he still got back on his bike and participated the second day. The whole team supported each other along the route with an incredible team spirit. Tracey said; “Even on the worst part, which was a five-mile constant hill climb on the second day, not one person got off their bike or decided they couldn’t do it - everyone kept going. It was an immense experience to finish the 500 for 50 challenge - there were lots of personal achievements that made the finish line an emotional place for everyone.” Emma Osman
