    Don't suppose anyone fancies cheering me along?

    This Saturday I'll be taking part in the London to Brighton Bike Ride (wait for it...) with a twist..

    I'm going off-road.

    Rather than the previous two years' 54 miles on tarmac, this will be 75 miles mostly off road.

    If any Grapes happen to live along the route, or find themselves on a bridleway/track with a load of cyclists passing them, please wave/shout encouragement/catch.

    Many ta's

    Practise makes us a little better, it doesn't make us perfect.

          Do you have padding? This is very important

                May your bottom be well padded and not too sore at the end!

                Pay day Fri, I'll sponsor you big chap. Best of luck

                  You'd better publish the route Wayne - and if it involves my section of the Grand Union Canal I will be there!

                    There's a map of the route at the bottom of this page: Rough Ride Guide Articles - London 2 Brighton Off-road bike ride, 22nd September, 2012

                    Nowhere near me, obviously, so I'll just have to virtually cheer you on

                      I'll join the Virtual Cheerleaders Group too!
                      Oh and a Gel pad seat would probably be good, or just a gel pad the week after.

                        He'll be saddle sore without it so I bet he takes the risk

                          Well, looking at that map, you're not coming anywhere near me. But I'd be very surprised if you were! lol

                          I won't wave, but have sponsored you instead!

                              Good luck! Sponsored you. Maybe add the Just Giving link for anyone else who wants to support you?
