In the time honoured phrase that there is no fool like an old fool I have taken up the challenge to cycle the 44 miles from Buck House to Windsor Castle. This is a real challenge given that I last rode a bike on the way home from my O Levels in '74. The ride takes place on Sunday October the 1st and I will be setting off at 7.00am and "hoping" to finish at about 3pm accompanied by a few very sore body parts! I am of course currently in intense training in preparation for my efforts to get from the sofa to the finish line, and I hope that you will be able to support my fundraising for a great cause that really benefits the disadvantaged youth of Britain.
