Route overview, now I'm getting worried!!

Found this today mmmmmm http://magazine.bikeradar.com/2013/02/07/ridelondon-surrey-100-ride-preview/#null

The ball has started rolling

Must say a big thanks to the only 2 Terrys I know who have both sponsored me today.  Cheers lads, now I really have to start pushing those pedals.

New Bars

I have now fitted some flat top handle bars, which have been recommend to me by a few people. I just need to make some  final adjustments and hopefully they will be more comfortable on longer rides.  Lets see!

Despite the constant snow flurries

Despite the constant snow flurries Brian and I manged to do 17 miles up to the Chilterns. There was a light dusting across the top which made for a great view.Overall a good ride even though it was so cold I lost the feelings in my toes.

On Saturday morning I hope to get out for a couple of hours on the mountain bike. At the moment it is getting pretty cold and we may even get some snow which should liven things up a bit.

Getting ready for a long ride

Now that I have my entry confirmed I have created this blog as a way of recording the trials and tribulations of getting my body ready to ride 100 miles in a day to take part in the first Ride London 100. I hope that people will make regular visits  and even contribute some posts in a effort to motivate me in raising £500 for the Sue Ryder charity.
