I’ve taken up torturing myself with an instrument known as a bicycle in the name of ‘Addaction‘, a charity which works with the friends and families of active drug addicts and alcoholics.
Recently, I did the London to Brighton cycle ride, which involved a lot of pain and suffering through the night, when I should have been tucked up in bed. I reached Brighton in 4 hours, 47 minutes and 12 seconds, having cycled 62 miles and climbed 2000 feet. It felt like running a marathon, but with no training. I have followed this madnesss up with the Dunwich Dynamo.
…Who know’s what will be my next cycling adventure… watch this space.
