5 weeks to go!!

Oh Dear, I have just noticed we have 5 weeks to get ready! This weekend saw our longest training ride yet. Thankfully we are not aching too much! Bazza has now sorted the support van out, all hotels are booked, and everything is falling into place.

The ride at the weekend was interesting, the first half was all country roads against the wind, then we turned toward home and came down the A6, against the wind again!!! A roads seem to be a lot easier than country roads, apart from the high speed traffic, and those big lorries!! Frank flew up the A6, while I paced myself and took in the views of Northamptonshire and Bedfordshire!

Fundraising is going well, just over £3,000 to date, and our big fundraising night coming up on 25th April!! We are still looking for donations either financially or into our raffle!! For more information pop us an e-mail!
