Gravel Bike Rider (GBR)

I took up cycling at the age of 46 and planned my first cycle ride to raise money and awareness for Beating Bowel Cancer. Sadly mum passed away before my first ride.
My first big ride was in 2013 when I cycled JOGLE with a friend unsupported. Two years later we completed the reverse ride LEJOG. A persistent bad back and knee has kept me off the bike for a few years...but I didn't give up! As you'll know if you've read my previous blogs ... I love a plan. In May 2019 I managed to cycle my recumbent Trike from St Malo 2 Millau in France 7 days and 550 miles raising more money for Bowel Cancer UK before my knee gave up again !! I've now raised over £10,000 and still going, I’m now back on two wheels and cycling a custom build Sonder Camino gravel bike looking to plan my next adventure .....
