Training Ride

On Saturday 9th February, Chris and I did our first long training ride together with the bike fully kitted out as they will be on the actual ride. We did a 55 mile circular route through the Hampshire countryside and as you can see from the photo, we were lucky with the weather!

The ride took us a total of 5 hours including stops for food and photos; it has made us realise just how much food and drink we will have to carry to see us through just one day, let alone fifteen days.

This ride marked the completion of the website (although it will continue to be updated) and a real ramp up in our training regime. It’s now only three months away and I’m sure that will fly by.

Regular updates will now be posted to the site to let you know how the training and fund raising is going. Keep checking back and please sponsor us if you haven’t already!
