In a moment of weakness, I agreed to take part in the Yeovil Town FC annual charity 'Back from...' event. So, I am one of 108 riders cycling from Herblay (Paris) to Yeovil over 4 days in late April, a total of 241 miles.

Training for the ride is already underway, mostly in the wind and rain!

We are raising money for 3 great charities - Cystic Fibrosis Trust, Cyclists Fighting Cancer and Yeovil Town Community Sports Trust. Please give whatever you can, your donations will make the ride so much easier! Thank you.
