So as many of you know we did a massive bike ride on vintage bikes in full battle order from Brecon to Cardiff to raise money for the struggling Welsh regiment museum and the RBL.
it took us all day with many physical mental and mechanical issues but we did it.
With everyone's donations towards our very emotionally tough, physically tough, mechanically tough and mentally tough challenge, you all helped raise a massive total of £2464 exceeding our goal of £2000
so I along with all members of the Welsh tommies 39-45 reenactment group we thank you!
We donated half of that figure £1232 to the museum the other half is yet to be donated to the RBL due to all our personal lives but this will be done soon.
It was a very proud moment for all of us
we would like to thank our very own Helen Boschen for all the organising for this
Thanks again to everyone

"a personal note from me mikey stoneman as chairman of the Welsh tommies i am so proud and honoured to call the group my other family!
I am proud of everyone's achievement today We all dug deep through :- freezing cold,tears,agonising pain, excruciating cramps, vintage bicycle failures! Scorching heat, saddle sores, pulled muscles, blistering feet,broken bones and many other things!
We had ups and downs,literally, physically and mentally.
comradery was strong and present the whole time! When someone wanted to give up, someone was there riding by their side egging them on!
Special thanks to Helen Boschen for organising route and the cycle and keeping a level head!
To our support drivers Eddie March Sam Fletcher Richard Williams Janette Dennis
And well done all the riders I'm so proud of you all
