When we started this challenge, we really didn't think that we would surpass 1,500 miles, let alone 2,500. We are doing gentle riding this week, maybe a couple of 25 milers so will easily top the 2,500 miles which we are really pleased with.
Then on Sunday, it's the Derby Sportive. We head off up to Carsington to cycle 28 miles of hills and cycling with over 2,000 other cyclists so plenty of people to bump into! We would really appreciate donations of any amount to support us in our fight for Pancreatic Cancer and thank you for your support. Well, it's getting close to the Sportive now and we have been training well after a little bit of a drought over the summer. The weather hasn't been great and there have been holidays to go on so mileage has suffered a little. So, this week was a real big one for us with Jane hitting yet another personal best of 35 miles, awesome Jane, it must have been those new shorts and saddle that did it I think!
Quite an international week. Sally did 100 miles in wales and Bob did 13 miles round Central Park in New York!
