Deloitte RAB 2012 – An Adventure Day 9 – The Final Instalment

The final day dawns and the excitement around the camp is tangible. This would be the day we reached the end of our journey, the last day of riding 100 miles on my bike. (Let’s face it, after this it might be the last time I ever get on my bike...)

Deloitte RAB 2012 – An Adventure? Day 7

Breakfast at just after 5am and I was lucky enough to sit with brilliant but slightly bleary eyed Scottish skier Alain Baxter for breakfast who had taken a train at around 4 this morning to ride with us today, hmm not the best choice of day, hope that was

Deloitte RAB 2012 – An Adventure? Day 6

After yesterday’s battle, ‘Don’t stop believing’ rang out this morning! The day dawned a little damp but it soon dried up. The roads were flat and wide and today we made good time throughout, which was lucky as today was the day my mother was waiting at

Deloitte RAB 2012 – An Adventure? Day 5

Day 5 did not start well, despite the ‘Eye of the Tiger’ wake up call. We were sodden, from the moment we started it was literally pouring down our faces, we could barely see. My feet were swimming in my shoes despite the ’waterproof’ overshoes and my h

Deloitte RAB 2012 – An Adventure? Day 2

Having been woken by the dulcet tones of PJ & Duncan (yes Ant & Dec as we know them now) singing ‘Let’s get ready to rumble’ and really thinking that Kelly Clarkson’s ‘What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger’ might be more appropriate....I got to the sta

Deloitte RAB 2012 – An Adventure? Day minus 1

So I had hoped to give you a blow by blow, day by day account of the Deloitte RAB Lands End to John O’ Groats cycle ride but due to some, shall we say, ‘velocity issues’ – more about those later – that proved to be rather difficult! However, you will all

London Revolution 2012 – 2 Days, 180 miles, 1 iconic city

On May 19th I turned up at 7am at Peruvian Wharf, terrified, with no frame of reference whatsoever for what I was about to do/fail to do. The furthest training ride I had done so far was 55 miles so doing 100 miles one day, camping and then doing another

Deloitte RAB 2012? Ignorance was bliss….

Wait, hang on, so having not been on a bicycle since I was approximately 16 years old, not to mention the fact that I don't even have a bike, I have voluntarily signed myself up to ride the length of Britain?  It will be 100 miles a day for 9 days on a sa
