Action 100 Cycle Ride

Having worked on the PR side alongside the volunteers who annually make the Action 100 charity cycle ride happen, Claire Thompson (otherwise known as Mrs Page) has committed to getting fit enough to ride in 2006 - its Silver Jubilee year. That's 100 miles from Bath to Chobham and it's going to hurt - lots! "This is my leap of faith and a public declaration that I'm doing the ride - without it, it would be way too easy to chicken out."

More on the evil daisy

Still trying to get images up onto the blog. Sent message to Picasa, company responsible for the evil daisy image that grins at me from my PC everytime I log on.

Got the requisite patronising sentence : "Blogger provides detailed instructions to accomplish this task on the following site" followed by URL. Do they think I didn't try and find the answer on-line? Do they they think I enjoy emailing smart arse propellor heads in the certain knowledge that I'll get back either an automated response or an "aren't you stupid, here's the [hiterto hidden] URL for your answer, go away and stop bothering us."

I know they want to be playing Doom or texting buddies, not dealing with me, but don't they realise I'll go away quicker if they help me.

Anyway, I've followed their instructions and still can't sort out the image, so it's obviously just too late at night.

All of which has nothing to do with the Action 100 ride, which now has over half the riders it needs to whoop our last years numbers (up over 15% on last year). However, the organisers are worried because they have less banners up reminding people about the ride (and therefore returning their application forms) and numbers from Bath are down.

Aiming to test the bike tomorrow - should give the kids/neighbours a laugh, if nothing else.
