Cycling 53 miles in one day


Me and my Dad Crossing the Line

Last Friday I took part in a 53 mile sponsored cycle ride round Carmarthenshire. It started and finished in my home town of Llanelli and it was brilliant. I fell over my bike at the first checkpoint and cut me knee (you can just about see the graze in the pic) but I kept on going. There were over 150 cyclists (though the ride was split in to 5 stages so no everyone did every stage) and it was wonderful to be part of something so big and for so many good causes. It may not be as big as the London to Brighton ride but I think i'm right in saying that it gave everyone who took part a lovely warm glow (as well as some sore legs ;0))
