A few years ago I ditched the running shoes for the bike, and I have enjoyed the switch overall.   In setting up Valiant time has been hard to come by and so my fitness is not what it used to be.  I need a challenge....  Our industry has been through some very tough times, and so I thought it was time to try and help where I can.  I have therefore decided to try help with fundraising and at the same time challenge myself - what better way than to join around 50 industry colleagues and ride around 240km across the beautiful countryside of the Yorkshire Wolds.  We will take on the 'Pedalling 2 Pubs UK Edition 2023' challenge to raise money and awareness for two great charities, 'The Licensed Trade Charity' and 'Only a Pavement Away', who support people who work in the pub and hospitality industry.
