🚵♂️ Peaple Talent Cycle Bristol to Bordeaux.. well, almost!
Last week, our intrepid duo, Karl Sweatman and Jordan Fitzgerald, embarked on their epic 500-mile journey from Bristol to Bordeaux. They’ve been training almost daily for 6 months, aiming to crush their impressive times from last year's ride from Bristol to Paris!
Despite being ready for punctures, the great British weather, and minor injuries, poor Karl did not prepare to face the culinary apocalypse known as food poisoning just 2 days before the trip 😷
Ever the trooper, Karl pushed on (well, Jordan pushed Karl - literally! 👉) but after 2 days, dehydration and the inability to keep anything down took its toll. Karl had to spend Day 3 in bed, recovering and dreaming of better food choices.
🛣 Meanwhile, Jordan, aka "The Machine," kept the Peaple Talent flag flying high, powering through with a hint of envy for Karl's unexpected bed rest.
⚡ On Day 4, with the end in sight, Karl bounced back, and together with the rest of the incredible teams, they conquered the final leg to Beaurdeux.
👏 We couldn't be prouder of Karl and Jordan and are deeply grateful to everyone who donated to our Charity of the Year Props Bristol. Your support means the world to us!
📢 A huge shoutout to the awesome team at Props for organising this fundraiser. Despite Karl going down it was a fantastic experience, one to remember for sure!
Please enjoy these 2 photos taken, between toilet trips and bed rest. The marketing team are making a case to go with them next year... 🙄
