I’ve taken part in RideLondon 100 for the last three years with varying degrees of success, mainly due to the weather, my training, and circumstances en-route beyond my control! It’s part of a fantastic weekend of cycling in the capital, which includes the FreeCycle on the Saturday and the pro race on the Sunday so … More RideLondon 46: Pros and Cons

I returned home yesterday evening to some exciting and slightly scary mail. I entered the ballot for Ride London, the same as I entered the ballot for the London Marathon – not really expecting to get in, and not 100% sure if I really wanted to do it!
