Right, I’ve gone and done it and signed up for Pedal For Scotland 100 mile sportive ride. Furthest I’ve ever cycled before was 60 miles in a charity cycle to Berwick.
Several of us from the office are doing it – some do more cycling the others – my weekly commute without extras is only 25 miles so I’ve upped that to 60ish with trips round Arthur’s Seat. Also adding weekend long cycles – 33+ last week followed by 25 leisurely miles with Lorraine on the Sunday
Will see how it goes between now and the 12th September.
Asked my chum Mark Beaumont for a tow since he will be there anyway 😉
Hopefully new bike will arrive next week since I don’t think I could cope on my commuter and although I kindly had the offer of a decent roadie it’s maybe not the best doing 100 miles on a bike without getting used to it.
