Starting at the Brenner Pass on the border with Austria on September 5th we aim to reach the southern tip of Sicily near Portopalo di Capo Passero by September 23rd. Gybe Gilbert, Jeroen Markies, Peter Cross and Mark Sewell make up the team. So that's 2,000km (1,250 miles) and 14,000m (45,000 ft) to climb in 17 days, cycling 112km (70 miles/day). Should be fun!

The Four Fossils make Rome
With a combined age of over 200, the nickname seems quite appropriate. Or perhaps the Four A'Fossils ?
Anyway, we're fired up and cycling hard and fast, working as a real team now. Bring on Southern Italy!
