The Caha Mountains are the huge perpendicular monoliths that separate Bantry from Kenmare and have been positioned somewhat deliberately, I believe, in order to make cyclists lives miserable. From the top of their most heinious summit you can see all the way back to Mizen Head. You can also see rabid dogs that chase you up the vertical rubble strewn pig tracks whilst snapping at your latest lycra bodywear and on a clear day, like today, if you look hard enough there are broken men littering the sweat soaked road to Kenmare. Today we earned every bit of our sponsorship. Today we climbed those bastard hills. Today we toiled, we bled, we vomited, we cramped, we cursed and most of all we wept. Wept like babies when Elliot fell off in the car park within seconds of starting! Fundraising is currently about £4500. Thanks so much it makes it all worthwhile.
