Starting on the Northern Border with Spain in the town of Melgaco on the River Minho on May 5th we aim to reach the southern tip of Portugal on May 11th. Gybe Gilbert, Jeroen Markies, Peter Cross, Renny Leach, Alastair Pinkney, Nigel Foster and Mark Sewell make up the team. So that's 800km (500 miles) and 6,500m (21,000 ft) to climb in 7 days, cycling 112km (70 miles/day). Should be fun!

Day 7 - Finished
A mountainous ride to finish - 540 miles covered in 7 days so nearly 80/day. Beautiful weather again and yet more stunning scenery. Portugal has been amazing. Now celebrating at the pool at our final hotel near Faro.
