Buffeted and bedraggled, but two brave boys bike it to Brighton

Enormous congratulations to Bailey Brown-Watts (left) and Max Scrivener in year 9 who did battle with the weather gods on Sunday in the annual British Heart Foundation London-Brighton Bike Ride. At over 50 miles, this is a challenge for anyone, but for 14-year olds with a 20 mph headwind it is a tall order indeed. 

The boys were riding separately with other family members.

You can tell from the picture how justly proud they are of the medals they can now keep forever as a memento of a wet but immensely satisfying ride.

Well done to both boys and good luck with your fundraising!
