Training Blog

This is my training blog that details how I am getting on training for a cycle ride from my home in the West Midlands to Brixham, South Devon which is scheduled in June 2009. I am doing this to raise money for Rowcroft Hospice who cared for my mother who passed away in April 2008 due to Motor Neurone Disease.

Enjoy the read....I had not been on a bike since I was a teenager and this is a whole new world to me, however I am determined to succeed, for my Mum and for the personal challenge.

Aug 7th - Sorry

Firstly sorry that I have not updated this blog for a few days.  I have not been feeling too good and decided not to go out on the bike as I did not want my sore throat to turn into a cold.

However after 2 days overdosing on Vitamin C I felt much better tonight, I don't finish work til 6:30pm this week so I did not get in the bike until 7:20pm(after dinner).  I did 15.4 miles in 59 minutes.  Not my fastest but it was good to get out.  I was actually planning to go further despite the rain however the light was fading quite fast and I decided to stop after 15miles.

My Dad is staying with us this weekend so even though I still plan to go out it will be nothing spectacular.

Also congratulations to Joy on getting her new bike today, see John Berry's blog for pics.......I look forward to reading your blog!
