I did a quick search on google to find the hardest cycling challenge I could do for charity. I found this http://revolve24.com/. It sounds horrible. I love cycling, but cycling for 24 hours round 1 lap which is only 2.4 miles long with 65metres of climbing each lap (including 1 10% hill) sounds like a terrible idea. It IS a terrible idea. I would imagine any joy of being out cycling will be gone pretty soon into the challenge.

 So why am I doing it? I'm doing it because people I know and love have taken on cancer. Some have won but some have lost. My wonderful sister is currently fighting this battle and I whilst I can't suddenly become a cancer research expert, or take her place in the chemotherapy clinic every month, then maybe I can do this one thing to help others to try not to have to go through the battle that she is currently facing.
