With our move supposed to take place in August we didn’t register for the Cycle4Cynthia sponsored cycle but as things turned out we were here. We’ve been doing this cycle for 9 years and it’s a shame this will be our last. This time we undertook the 25 mile circuit rather than the 50 miles because we hadn’t had time to get enough cycle practice to make sure we were fit for the 50 miles. The weather was the very best ever (last year it was cold and wet for most of the cycle) and we soon shed our pullovers and did most of the cycle in our T-shirts.
The camaraderie of so many people with a shared aim is brilliant although some cyclists took it all a bit too seriously and whizz passed us at over 20mph whilst we plod along at 10mph.
Good to know you had a good cycle ride and that the weather gods were with you for your last ride. Is it still possible to sponsor you again or should we send our donation direct?
No need to sponsor us as we’ve decided to make a substantial payment (or at least I think its substantial but Jane would give more) on the back of the house sale. We are both so pleased that we managed to fit the cycle in around our busy house move, especially as it will be the last time.
