And Murray won Wimbledon so just need to find out BC took a wrong turn and won Tour de France and the weekend will be complete

Maybe we've not heard because he was caught using performance enhancing drugs

Now he's trying to convince them it's just Viagra for the trip to disney  Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

Still hoping for a S2 one day!

Well, I made it in an amazing 22 hours 48 minutes and finished inside the top 50 riders ( some of whom were doing as a pair so only rode every other leg).

Total distance was 275 miles and just under 16 hours in the saddle at an average of just over 17mph.

Definitely the hardest challenge I have EVER done in my life, went to some dark places in the depths of the night and questioned myself if I could make it, but I dug very deep and pushed on.

I'll do a more detailed write up and some pictures when I have some time, but wanted to let everyone know how it went. The support on here has been fantastic , thank you all so much.

Currently at Disneyland Paris a couple of days with the family, although not sure I'm up for much walking around  ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i
