Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Arthur and I completed a 20 mile 'training cycle' on Sunday - half of one day, two burst tires (not my bike before someone comments on my weight) and one sore bottom. Long way to go...

Well. only a few days to go and the training has gone swimmingly....well, both of us are already wet and cold and now very afraid. We both have mountain bikes (everyone else has road bikes); we are novices (everyone else seems to be near professional); I have never channged a tire in my life (first admission); and we have not done as much training as originally planned. At least we are going to have a go..

Well, all over now - I peddled for 152miles and Arthur did the whole 233miles! Inspirational performances from Simmie, Kev and Alexi on tandems and trike. Thank you team - and thanks to all who sponsored us. Please consider giving!.

So please dig deep and donate now.
