Loved it! Have been sitting at work thinking about all the great moments - really funny moments (a couple of you will know exactly which ones) and just the general joy of reaching Paris.
And the Boys from BLISS you are a brilliant bunch.

All,
It was a fantastic memorable experience that i won't forget, i don't recall much about the nights!! When i set off from Waterloo it was a long drive home but i felt proud, thinking of how well we all did. The event was coordinated soundly and i have met some fantastic people.
I reckon i would be up for more challenges so if any of you intend to participate in some please give me a buzz. I shall sort out my photos and stick them on myspace or if you know of a different site we can all use let me know.
Cheers

All,
Thanks for an enjoyable trip. I was doing the washing up earlier today and got a sudden, overwhelming urge to get on the bike. So, I dug out my smelly cycling gear from the laundry basket and hopped on the bike for a quick 25 mile ride - without even breaking a sweat  . In fact, I've never felt fitter nor more confident on the bike. Back to the reality of work tomorrow though. 
If anyone wants to stay in touch (or wants any marketing consultancy - sorry - couldn't resist  ) my email address is simon.eyre@innovativo.co.uk. Better still go to www.linkedin.com and Link to me and when you change jobs/email addresses or emigrate to Peru to run cycle tours or something, it's easier to keep in touch.
Cheers guys, and keep spinning those cranks...
Simon (Eyre)

its a bit of a downer going back to work (i went in today) even though got the congrats from people, it wasnt you guys there and it got me quite depressed! sad as it sounds, we've been in each other's pockets for the last few days and its been a proper bonding session and a right old laugh.
arse... gotta go back again tomorrow! :(

Hi guys
Apart from all the other stuff I learnt on the trip ..... like how to change a tyre and what tyre levers are for!.......I discovered from you guys that there is this .......the forum!!!
Thanks to everyone who helped us! Everybody was so helpful!! It was such fun and we had a great time!! It's a bit funny now it is all over after all the months of planning and training! Time to plan the next one!!! Whatever that may be!
xxxx Mindy Diana and Julie

Dudes...
Great 4 days, huh?! Really great experience, and met some fantastic people. I thought the DA organisation & staff were top-notch, and the food stops would have put a few restaurants to shame.
Too many specific people to mention here, but I have few e-mail addresses and hope to bump into some/all of you again in the future (particularly if you're a female Triathlete, with an bike almost as sexy as the rider...  ).
Back on the bike after work tonight. Got the Herts sportive to train for in Sept. - can't wait now!
All the best.
Alan.
