Well done to all who made it and the couple who gave it their best shot but were thwarted by circumstances beyond their control.
After 100+ pages it's too late to change the title, but nothing wimpish about any of it.

It's been fun following you all.

And thank you ...

To all we rode with, all that supported us and all that helped.

For me this was a grand adventure. We have few adventures these days with so many trapped in their digital fog.
To all my band of brothers and sisters thank you so much for the life memories and friendships that the days on and off the bike have brought.

To all of you, " Love you" ... :)

Yes, well done to team wimps, including all the support crew. :D :D

I can't be the only one who has followed your story and wished I'd been a part of it.

Well done chaps! Chapeau!

Sorry that the Bristol day was a bit of a downer, that's the day I was waiting for you all at Almondsbury.
I could have come further south and guided you, but there we are. Alls well that ends well.

It’s 11:30am I’ve not had a second breakfast and I might not survive til lunchtime. Feeling ravenous I lost 5lbs in weight despite eating what must have been 5000 calories/ day.

I had a red number 1 on my messages tab for over a week and couldn’t find it. It’s a different place when you’re not in contacts list doh! Wished I’d found your message that day but probably hadn’t a clue where we were anyway. :) :lol:

Being part of the Wimps was (is) one of the best experiences of my life.
I can only add my admiration for all the guys and gals who made it to JoG.
Very well done to all and thank you very much for the help.
You'll never know if you don't try it.
