why

in 2009 with the loss of so many friends and mum,i decided that time had come to realise a dream,cycling end to end,but at near on 20 stone everyone thought i was crazy,a visit to the doctors had welcomed results with the advise not to diet ,take the training steady and eat a sensible heathy diet,and get regular checks with them from time to time,

out on the bike it was murder on my rear too much weight pressing down on such a small area,

the answer A RECUMBENT TRIKE ! and boy was it welcome.because i want to enjoy it 50 mile a day has been planned(20ish days)i have decided the only way i could afford it was to cycle camp,rough and ready but cheap

due to the length of the trip it will also be solo and un assisted,told you i was crazy

65 DAYS TO THE OFF

days are flying bye,things seam to be coming together,from people wanting to sponsor and the general interest in my plans,people just don't realise that one of the challenges i have set myself is to get from top to bottom unsupported,if things go wrong ill have to deal with it.but I'm hoping that iv planned for most miss apes only time will tell,
apart from a few securing straps i now have all my equipment,it will all fit on the trike without the need of the trailer so that's less weight to carry.
shirts i have a shirt to start and finish in.was looking yesterday at getting two or three printed cycling shirts as an advert to let people know what i will be doing,decathlon can produce a reasonable shirt printed to my design in the day so may go get a quote over the weekend as they will not quote over phone as they normally only print football shirts
