Story

All forces have been invited to take part in this fund raising this year, on the back of an extremely successful challenge last year (details below). Now Andy Cox has committed to doing 30 miles on foot every day for 7 days, and whilst I do a bit of running this is beyond my abilities! 

What I have committed to doing though is at least 100km by bicycle every day for 7 days. I'm quite a keen cyclist as some around the force may know and have previously done Lands End to John O'Groats in 7 days where we raised money for Weston Park Cancer Charity. But; I'm older, I'm heavier, I really don't like hills and I have four 12 hour shifts to do in the same week!! 

I will record the rides I do on Strava and I'll post the links to the rides into here so you can amuse yourself with my suffering; and this alone must be worth a couple of quid of anyone's money! I can assure you setting off from home for a 12 hour day shift at 0430hrs on a bicycle is not much fun! I might even finish the week off with a 100 miler depending on how the posterior feels!

Besides the amusement you'll have the cause is a great one, and given what I now do in Roads Policing it seems pertinent that we lead the way. You can find out more about the charity on the following link.
