The lads from Ride2Rescue has succesfully crossed Europe, recently hitting Istanbul and crossing the Bosphorus into Asia.
With plenty of hills and desert ahead of them, it's only going to get more interesting, so keep an eye on the lads on Facebook and at their website (http://ride2rescue.org/). We copied John 'Kickers' Clarke's latest update below, just so you get a sense of what they've been up to.
John Clark’s Budapest to Istanbul Review, Posted on June 30, 2011
Month 2 has come to an end and the month of June saw the Ride2Rescue Read More
The League goal kicking is going down to the wire also, and this final round of the regular season will reveal the winners.
The good news is that various Lions are still well and truly in the hunt. Keep an eye on 1st grade this weekend, where Keebs and Didsy are bound to make life difficult for each other... but hopefully not difficult enough to allow the other players near them to sneak ahead.

In 3rd grade, Leigh 'Wonderboot' Haslem has a slight lead, but will Read More
Round 9 is behind us, and 3 big wins puts all 3 Lions teams safely into the finals action. With one week to go, that doesn’t mean we can all switch off, but it does take a little of the pressure off.

3rd Grade: Defeated Reading 14.15.99 to 9.4.58
We welcomed the Reading Roos to Bounds Green, knowing that they knocked Read More
Check out the competition tables below, to see where the Lions are tracking in all 3 grades. Good news: with 1 game to play all sides are safely qualified for finals!
This is a brave new territory for the Lions. Once previously our 3rd grade team made finals, but that was because of some weird event involving forfeits and other teams not wanting to play. So this, officially, is the very first time all 3 teams are there on their own merit, and well deserving of a crack at premiership glory!
Of course there is still one round to play, Read More
3 Lions teams made the trip down to the deepest, darkest reaches of Putney, where we were due to face the Magpies in all 3 grades.
As is the case in London, asking Lions to leave the safety of the tube and take a short bus ride to the footy is a nightmare waiting to happen, and so it was that we were spread far and wide across South West London on Saturday morning.
The phones were ringing hot, Google maps were working overtime, and somehow we actually managed to get everyone there at approximately the right time. Read on for details Read More
