Have been off the bike for a few days with injured thighs – being a bit over-enthusiastic in the gym on Friday evening.

Managed a 25-mile ride in brilliant sunshine yesterday. Took it easy and my legs seem to have fared OK.

Now off to do a 30 mile ride today.

Getting a bit worried about fundraising; haven’t managed to raise as much as I’d hoped by this stage, so need to remind people. Lots of people say they will sponsor me, but it’s turning that consent into action that’s sometimes a problem.
