... on his 100 mile bike ride. Well done. Fantastic effort. Let's see the photos (surely you stopped to take some pics of the scenery, and all those riders behind you ;) )

Back in February I was persuaded by some friends in Tansley to enter "The great Nottinghamshire bike ride" with them. The long course is 100 miles which is what they are doing. Some of the Tansleyites are keen long distance roadies so I was a bit unsure that I would be able to keep up so I in turn persuaded Fiona to enter as well (so we could bring up the rear!) Also I was advised that it would be much harder on a mountain bike than a road bike, Now in my shed, and has been for the past 15 years, was Dan's old road bike. Since he has left the area I got it out and had a go on that.
