Speed cycling

This blog is a little belated as I have been travelling this week and am just back from Denmark. I borrowed a friends racing bike weekend before last (thanks Jamie) after some persuasion and promptly took 14 mins off my cycle time for 20K. He was right all along, and I have now splashed out on a new-to-me race bike which I'll use for the event. The picture is of me with Jamie's bike, mine is the same in blue.

With ten days to go I am reducing the training, but getting the time to panic about all the things that can go wrong. I'm sure I'll be fine, mild worrying is probably good for me.

The fund raising is going well, heading fast to £1,000 with all the various groups who are helping me out, and the local gym have said I can do some promo there on Monday night. If you are in the Livingston area come and say hello at Bannatynes between 5:30 and 7:30ish.
