Many years ago when I was a lad working for John Menzies at 107 Princes Street, we did a sponsored cycle to Berwick – stopping half way at Dunbar.
I trained by going ‘Round the Rig’ which was about a 6 mile loop from my folks house in Balerno. Up hill to the foot of the Pentlands, flat along the top and then downhill back home.
It stood me well and we all managed to do the 60 miles in lots of hours and then got the train back into Edinburgh, bike came back in a JM van.
Yesterday Simon and I managed 64-65 miles to Carnwath, Carstairs and Hyndford Bridge before turning around.
We’ve got to do the same plus half again this Sunday in our 100+ mile effort.
So how about donating a few quid to Maggies Centres through our JustGiving page.
Many thanks to those who have already donated.
