Almost a year ago, I watched my husband cycle down the mall in London and decided without hesitation that I wanted the feeling of riding down towards Buckingham Palace and I would do the challenge this year! So here I am busy training to ride 100 miles from London out to the Surrey hills and back to London. Its hard work and on Saturday I will set off on holiday to Devon to do my last main training ride of 85 miles (followed by a few short ones in the Devon hills for good luck, which means I can treat myself on holiday too).
Why? My own personal challenge to push me further than I have ever ridden on a bike and to keep me fit
