Story

I have fairly recently started to do a bit of cycling and as those that know me will agree, I don't do things by half!

I've signed up to take part in an organised bike ride from Lands End to John O'Groats. That's 910 miles over 9 days, so about 100 miles each day! This event is classed as "strenuous" so I'll be training hard for this between now and 23rd August 2020 when I will be departing from Lands End. Currently I can cycle about 100 miles but there is no chance that I could then wake up the following day and then do it all again let alone do it for the following 8 days.

After booking this event I have now decided that as I am doing something so challenging then I should also do some good and raise money for a charity. I've chose Stand Up for Cancer as I believe that almost everybody is affected in some form by this terrible disease and hopefully one day this can be stopped.

I'll keep you updated on my training and the event.

Thanks for reading and supporting.
