For the last 2 or 3 years I had watched other farriers complete this fundraising event and thought " I can do that!" But, up until eight months ago, I had not even sat on a bike since my teens - and that was a BMX!

So in November 2017 I bought a road bike (and a shed load of lycra!) and started cycling with a local club 'Sofa to Saddle' in West Malling. Since then I have got fitter, stronger (slimmer!) and completed some sportive rides along the way. I am now raring to tackle the monster hills in Wales while raising money for this great charity, who support farriers and their families in times of need following injury or financial hardship.
