Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

A couple of years ago I bought a bicycle with a view to getting fit but then, having ridden it once or twice, decided I would never be fit enough to cycle a couple of miles.   Add to that the fact I couldn't get the hang of the gears and I decided to put the bike in storage. 

I've lost several friends to cancer during the past year and when someone suggested I cycle along Hadrian's Wall my initial reaction was one of laughter.  But why not?  If I manage to do it (and the route goes from Bowness on Solway on the west coast to Tynemouth on the east coast; a total of 100 miles) I will definitely have achieved a personal challenge - and hopefully raised a lot of money for a very worthwhile cause.

I'm doing the ride in June so have about 14 weeks to get fit!  So far, two consecutive days of exercise have left me very stiff and wondering if I've bitten off more than I can chew - time will tell!
