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."

Reality hits

Have been trying to get out on the bike but between work and the kids school holidays time for me just isn't on the cards.

Have been hit by the reality of this. I don't see how I'm going to get out and prepare for this ride whilst the kids are around. Which they always are if I'm not at work. So I have two choices.

The first is to cycle around after the kids are in bed, the house is tidied etc - genrally around 9.3pm (and with winter looming this just doesn't appeal, and I'll probably be arrested as the local nutter/on suspicion of burglary...)

The second is to take them with me, which means I shall have to get one of the kiddy carriages that two or three blogs ago I swore blind I wouldn't do. And will set me back the best part of £100.

Dilemmas, dilemmas.
