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."

Still no image

This is mad, mad, mad.

I just tried again to post an image to this blog, gritting my teeth, prepared to be sent to technology hell. it was simple - just click, add a message and up it goes: picture duly posted on blog... not!

Believing (because the software said it had) that my picture was now posted, I came back to my blog to take a look.

I hope no-one clicked on to peek in the intervening moments for there, sat proudly on my blog, were the words: 'An image of me'. A small step for mankind, I realise, but a significant one for me.

'That was easy' I thought: I was wrong. The evil daisy software had made me look more of a prat than the absence of entries. For there, sat proudly beside the words I'd sent from the software (Picasa) was..... nothing.

Now I'm not vain. I really don't think I'm going to be recruited for a leading part in Hollywood on the basis of my photo. Indeed, it may save a few computer screens if I don't have the picture up. But that's not the point. I'm going to be training for a bike ride. This has huge potential for comic moments, mainly visual. So I need to be able to do this small thing.

Please.
