A big thankyou for all your kind donations so far! The most interesting has to be Grace, Jude and Chris offering £5 every time Harvey 'falls off his bike, gets forcibly ejected from a country or delays your journey by more then 6 hours'. We thought this was strange, as each of them knows Harvey very well, nevertheless, this is great news for MacMillan!

Quite a few people asking where the challenge starts. Well, on August the 13th we get the train to Donaueschingen in the German Black Forest, where the official source of the Danube is marked by the spring below. Donau is German for Danube...
As the sign says, it is then 2840km to the sea! After that, the plan is to get a plane back to the UK, probably from Bucharest, but this needs some organizing!
Meanwhile, Flora has gone from not much cycling experince at all, to cross training! I'm kidding, but with Emma she ran a 10km race for life last weekend in Manchester, raising awareness for breast cancer, excellent work...
