Riding With Lions

I've only been on my bicycle twice this year, after I broke my leg at the end of last year. On Friday evening as I put my car in it's garage I noticed my neighbour wheeling a rather tasty bike into his. We fell into conversation and it turned out that he was organizing a charity ride for today, to raise money for charities supported by Burnham Lions Club, and somehow I found myself signing up for the longest option, 20 miles.

Bit nervous, given how few serious cardio-vascular workouts I've had recently, and it's an area with a few nasty (but thankfully short) hills. Pedaled round at a nice pace in a gang of four, it was well-signed and well-marshalled (they've been doing it for 20 years) and got given a bottle of water, choccy bar and this medal.

If you'd like to contribute you can sponsor me at the Purecharity website. Thank you.
