Hello again.
Last year I cycled from Penistone to the Wirral in a day and it hurt - a lot!
That was obviously not hard enough so, this year I am doing the whole 215 miles coast to coast route along the Trans-Pennine Trail www.transpenninetrail.org.uk to try to raise money for the Marie Curie Cancer Care charity (see below).
I will be starting on 6th August from Hornsea reaching Penistone later that day. Day 2 Penistone to Liverpool. Day 3 Liverpool to Southport.
I will then be relaxing by cycling another 50ish miles to play a game of cricket for Caldy CC before collapsing in an undignified heap!

*****************UPDATE 11/8/09********************************************
I completed the ride successfully on Friday 7th August covering a total of 228 miles I got lost few times and i will be posting a full account of my trip on the TPT website www.transpenninetrail.org.uk under "Your stories"
I didn't manage to do the extra mileage on the Saturday as I was incapable of sitting on a bike by that time, but I think I did enough.
Thanks to everybody who helped me prepare and carry out the trip and, of course, everyone who sponsored me to carry out this mad venture!!
