11 July 2013, Gap to Alpe d'Huez, 168km, 6 mountains, 1xcat3, 3xcat2, 2xHC
They made it!
Haven't got much detail but I got a message late last night saying that it was done and although it was hard, it wasn't as bad as they thought it would be, plus there was a surprise when Bruce turned up to cheer them on which was a big boost especially as it is the biggest day today (day21) and they are very worried.
They have got a very early start tomorrow because it is such a long way - 204km with more mountains than any other section involving over 5000m of climbing! I can hardly believe I'm writing this, it just goes from bad to worse doesn't it?!! I'm glad I didn't know the detail when they started.
Maybe they are making it up and secretly sitting by a pool somewhere eating peanuts? No, it would have to be a big challenge for Nick to miss The Apprentice!
