It starts next week!

A good ride out on Saturday. Solo ride of 62 miles including climbing up Fish Hill. First time up as have always found a route that took me down. Temperature difference at the top surprised me. Was already in winter gear. Am actually looking forward to some sunshine and start getting the tan lines! The downside of the weekend was that my knee said enough after 10 miles on Sunday. Better part of valour, would rather rest it a bit now to ensure its ok for a 4 day ride which starts in under 4 weeks! How exciting! Already thinking about what to take and what to do on weekend of return. Still looking strong on the sponsorship front but still have to wait until the end of next week to have final confirmation. Although still a little bit shy of target. Really hoping to get to £2500. So close but not there yet! Monday afternoon included a conversation with a journalist from the Redditch Standard. Should hopefully see the article in this weeks edition! Photo too! Hoping that's not the only local paper running a story about he Cycle Slam and me this week. Exciting times ahead! Good luck to all the riders starting Stage 1 in Greece on Monday. Wow it's really happening.
