Getting VERY VERY close

As Hank from Galgos del Sol pointed out very early on, the ride from Chester to San Javier is probably only about 4cm....

Well day 13's effort now puts us about 5mm from our final destination!! To say the team will be relieved to reach the other end, is an under-statement! This road trip has had every emotion, amazing terrain, surprises, a bit of illness, and heaps of laughs have hallmarked this amazing adventure.


Day 13 took the boys (with AP back in the saddle after his bug), from Utiel to Yecla. It also brought the ride into the Murcia region of Spain, and leaves one final day of pedalling to bring this amazing adventure to it's physical conclusion.

Obviously the work continues. Sighthounds' lives still need changing. And political and social opinion still needs to change, so the welfare of working hounds, down here in Spain, and back home in Blighty improve. And every penny you can donate will contribute to those efforts, even after the saddle sores and worn muscles of Toby and Andy have healed.



You probably already know, but the links to both amazing organisations are at the top of the page on the right. Please, if you can afford to, contribute to the hard work that needs to continue long after day 14.


Thankyou. Your support has been essential, and appreciated.

Finally, the plans for tomorrow, currently top secret, will be revealed on the Facebook page (you don't need a facebook account to view it!! Click here! ) as the day unfolds. What we can say, is we'll hopefully live stream the boys' arrival at the Velodrome - it could be any time between 6pm and 8pm UK time (7-9pm, Spain time).  We'll be also putting photos from the arrival event on the ride's Instagram page - click that link and search "uk2spain"  - so if you've been following us for the last two weeks, hopefully you won't feel like you are missing out on the fun!!
