Cycle ride to Brighton

Image
I shall be cycling the London to Brighton route on Sunday 20th June along with 25,999 others. All donations are welcome through http://original.justgiving.com/zen_will_limit_karmas There was some doubt in my mind, when I agreed to do this 10 weeks ago, whether I would manage to get fit enough to stay in touch with my 4 fit team members but with the aid of lycra, St Piran, a bike service and some regular practice rides round the Bedfordshire countryside I think it might just be possible! The real challenge will be to stay on the bike all the way to the top of Ditchling beacon! The odds seem to be heavily against us achieving this due to the sheer numbers of other cyclists..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_cwv0Ts2y2U or http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RIB36JRWe70&NR=1

Long time away

Well it seems as if i have not been back to this blog for nearly 6 years and a lot has happened since then! I was just moving from wood to coalite for the central heating back then... during hte winter of 2008/9 the back boiler started leaking and finally gave up in April 09 after long service and abuse! Now joined the Gas Brigade and no longer have to empty ash on alternate days which is liberating :-).
