Richard managed some amazing distances in training last week, racking up 185 miles. He gets last week's Yellow Jersey! Richard has also completed the team challenge - which is to accumulate the 234 miles we'll all be needing to pedal.
George gets the week's King of the Mountains jersey, thanks mostly to fitting in a loop from his home through the Hampshire countryside that included some killer hills.
Well done to Julia and David for 25.5 miles - although it sounds like Julia's bike may need a bit of tweaking to its setup to prevent future back pain. Ben and I just managed to commute - 3 days for Ben and a pathetic twice for me! I'm still waiting for Matt to start adding his mileage - he did some cycling at Richmond Park at the weekend plus some gym stuff.
Team news - Mike Hawes has joined and Rick Jones is going to try and rustle up some French colleagues to join us. Sponsorship is up to £120 - thanks to all who've donated so far at http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/team/bqsrpedal . I suspect Julia's been most instrumental in our fundraising so far.
And on Smarter Travel news, Sherry from B&Q's Facilities ran a second Bike Doctor free cycle servicing session for B&Q House cyclists as the one she organised during Bike Week was so popular.
