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."

'fessing to the parents

Started letting family know I'm 'IN' - has been the root of much riebald commentary and amusement.

Father sent email:

Barmy one
you can borrow my waterbottle and vaseline
Dad

For someone who's communication with me is normally limited to (phone) "I'll get your mother" unless the subject of HIS grandchildren arises (note, his grandchildren, not my children), this is ground breaking progress!

There may be some hidden benefits to undertaking this ride after all. Just don't let him start of the subject of chaffing.... not sure this is great father/daughter bonding matter.
