Story
In nearly the words of the Proclaimers....I will 'ride' 500 miles....
Since my Sister got Cervical Cancer in 2016 Macmillan were amazing help to her and the rest of the family when we most needed it. Unfortunately my Sister passed away from Cancer on the 29th August 2017.
Due to this I have done one sponsored Cycle each year in order to help Macmillan in their amazing work.
This year (all being well....) I am doing the following long cycling challenges so thought I would bundle them together in this Just giving effort,
27th April Evans Cycles Windsor Sportive 75miles - Cancelled due to High Winds (Storm Hannah!).

14th July E'tape Du Tour (Amersham) https://www.letapeuk.co.uk/ 100miles - Complete 68 miles 4h 46mins - You may note the milege is somewhat short...This was due to some traffic issues getting to the event so they may a whole of us do a somewhat shorter route. 100km instead of 100miles.
