London to Brighton Training: Day 1

A little while ago, Sophie and I signed up for the London to Brighton bike ride, and today it dawned on us; exactly how much of a challenge it could be!

Looking at a description of the route and event, every paragraph ended with "be careful or you'll end up a crash test dummy and die" or "you'll hit another rider and die", or "if you cycle on a Sunday, you'll die".....

So bikes booked in for a service this week, we took them out for an 8 mile ride via a local pub!

We didn't die, so I'm starting to think I might actually enjoy this sort of training!
