Story
Cycling 2,640,000 Feet, for feet.
2010 saw the first incarnation of the '1000Miles Challenge', a ride that turned out to be closer to 1200 miles and which took us along every backroad from Land's End to John O' Groats and helped raise almost 10k for charity.
London-Edinburgh this year should thus be easy. I say should, as I have not been doing anywhere near the kind of training rides I used to do. Realistically... it will definitely be a Challenge!
I am excited, not least because I will be celebrating the big 4-0 while out on the bike :) and I truly count on you all to help me beat my fundraising target so instead of birthday pressies, please donate to the PC Project.

In case you're wondering why the University of Dundee is mentioned as the beneficiary; your donation is processed through the Uni as the PC Project saves valuable money by using the University's charitable status.Thank you for visiting my page.
