Wednesday 14th July
We only had to do a 15 mile ride today, so Ant concocted a route that took us out to Clyst St Mary, through Postlake, through Ebford to Topsham and home. Mostly a smooth ride, with just a couple of stops. The first to check our tyres for glass after speeding through a cycle path covered in glass, the second while I coughed and tried to dislodge a bug from the back of my throat! We also took a slight detour down a farm track, which Ant finally believed wasn't the right road after I pointed out a sign that said 'no unauthorised vehicles'. Not sure whethere bicycles were considered authorised vehicles, we made our way back to the main road and found the turning we were meant to take!
Meanwhile, the beady eyed amongst you may have spotted that our fundraising link has changed. Thanks to a very generous donation through Ant's company, Ant has now far surpassed his fundraising target for Project South Africa. We have therefore decided to support another charity with sponsorship from our Olympic Cycle Ride. What better cause to support than the setting up of a bicycle maintenance workshop?
