Having just turned 30 and due to get married in August I need a few challenges in my life to remind me that I am still actually relatively young!
I have just bought a new bike and have been getting out on it a fair bit, hopefully I should be fit and ready for the challenge. The tough part is likely to be trying to persuade my wife to be, 'that we are nearly there' and that the finish line is 'just around the next corner'!
Make a Wish Foundation does some great work so I do not think I will have a problem draining my family and friends of their hard earned cash!
The longest distance I have cycled was in Cherbourg to some tiny village in Normandy, not sure how far it was but it took all day, and I was only 16!
The first bike I can remember was a Raleigh Burner complete with yellow MAG wheels, it was special..
