Man-legend Cayle took on the Adventure Division of the Icarus Trophy in a paratrike. All the more hardcore because he lost his legs in Afghanistan. Forgetful chap. Not only are his balls enormous but he ranked highest on the beard-o-meter for the whole trip.

Harry Waugh flew with Ed in the 2015 Icarus Trophy Adventure Division. Harry flew with a wing from Ebay that was a touch on the small side meaning he had to run a full marathon before he left the ground. His altitude topped out at around 5000ft which meant some of the 5000ft passes where challenging.
King of inspirational chit chat, Ryan flew with his wingman Byron the entire race and like Byron decided to carry 50% of the contents of his house with him.

Claire came into the Icarus Trophy Adventure Division riding high on a Paratrike. Trained by race winner Dave Wainwright she came into the sport just to tackle this adventure. Hat's off to you Claire, actually don't take your hat off incase you crash again.
This is Ed Hamilton chatting about the 2015 Icarus Trophy. Ed and his wingman Harry took the Adventure Division by the short and curlies and flew what could only be described as a tactically feral adventure.
