Biking (bicycle pedal power) to Ypres

Ben and George are not experienced bikers but they set off today, 10:00, from Hereford town centre to ride to Ypres (Ieper as you see it on road signs nowadays).
They don't even have their own bikes, the ones they are using have been borrowed from, I think, Father and Uncle respectively.
It's a huge challenge, all for the RBL poppy appeal, and planned for this 100th anniversary of the beginning of the battle of Passchendaele.

I took a bit of video when we escorted them out of the town centre. https://youtu.be/jqsIXtjnU_0
