I’m about to do the Manchester to Blackpool Bike Ride again! It has been a few (cough) years since I was last out the bike, but I hadn’t realised how long! (yes it’s me under the hair)
Being the wrong side of 35 has puddled my brain I was still under the impression that the legs still ‘have it’. I’ve been out on two rides recently and they certainly haven’t – still, I’ve got exactly two months to get in shape (or less of an odd shape), get the legs working again, and acclimatise my derriere to the saddle.
The ride event, on Sunday 12th July, is in aid of Christie’s Hospital, and I’m trying to do a bit extra to raise some cash for the work they do.
So why not head over to my fundraising page a make whatever donation you can!
If you don’t I’ll put the lycra back on, and you really wouldn’t want that.
Early training
Frodsham Hill Climb Competition (late 80s-ish)
It was acceptable in the 80s... Nice Colnago - shame about the shirt.
