Last year my company wanted to do a team building event. Luckily the bosses cycle (roadies) so we were able to persuade them to run a bike ride from London to an office in Holland – 300 miles in 3 days.
It was a novel challenge to do once, and pleased I managed to do it on an MTB but I dont think I want to spend that time doing it again and I think the event cost more than they thought. (10 participants – one hired van, one car + drivers)
So I am looking for suggestions for another event preferably MTB based.
At one end of the scale one boss is looking to do Lejog
Pros: proper challenge with some bragging rights
Cons: Lots of time off work and away from family, I would have to buy a road bike.
On the other end of the scale is London to Brighton offroad. (back on the train)
Pros: only takes a day therefore cheap and inclusive
Cons: only takes a day
Suggestions?
(bearing in mind West London start point)
