I'm riding for Pendleside because not only is it a good cause, it's a good challenge.

The 12 hour, overnight event was suggested as a fundraising effort for a team of 6 to split between them but that seemed too easy so I'm trying to go solo.

12 hours of riding, overnight, doing repeated laps of a circuit only just longer than 1km. I've never attempted anything like this before and the setup of this event is going to be a challenge mentally as well as physically... I've set myself two targets:

1 - Finish!

2 - Cover at least 200 miles.
