For two years Ian Dommett, MD of our web company, Golley Slater, has used his Supalite XCR's for little more than walking across muddy football pitches. But an invitation to join some friends in the Maggies Centres' Monster Bike 'n' Hike has changed all that. Since Christmas Ian has been putting his boots through their paces as he builds up to the 30-mile bike ride and 43-mile hike this Saturday, from Fort William to Inverness.

Through hills, along coastal and canal paths and down city streets the Supalites have been with him, making the training a little more manageable, week after week. And even when it snowed Ian and his boots weren't put off and a trip to the Pentland Hills gave a bit of gradient practice.

With just a couple of days to go, over £700 raised and most of the equipment packed, Ian is ready.

You can still sponsor him at www.justgiving.com/iandommett 

Ian will post a blog next week to tell us how he got on.

Come on the Supalite's!
