Hi A massive thank you to everyone that sponsored me for cycle. 3 of us completed the race in around 5 hours. There were a couple of difficult stretches but, all in all, it was a great ride! I've posted a few pictures in the gallery section of this site so please have a look! Thanks again Mark

As I sit on my chair to write this journal entry, I am gently reminded of last night's ride. I cycled to Wybunbury and back to pick up my fig pie recipes for Saturday. My bottom is a little sore today but no great shakes. Tonight I'll do the same distance again and hopefully I will not be quite as uncomfortable tomorrow. Amazing funds being raised already so I'm well chuffed with all my supporters. Speak tomorrow :o)

Slightly scared by the fact that my training plan has not gone to, well.......plan! I had hoped to get more miles in by this point but all is not lost. Tonight I'm heading out for a few miles on my bike and next week I'll be preparing for the big day by cycling to work. One thing I am looking forward to is cycling with all of those other riders. I heard that last year there was a bit of pile-up at the start so I hope that doesn't happen again this year. I also hope that if it does, I am not the cause of it... 19th June - here I come! P.S Sponsor me :o)
