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."

18.30-ish: The Squirrels

Finally make it to The Squirrels.

Head for loo again. Am so relieved to be here. Cramp is dreadful - vary banana diet with a packet of crisps and set off as quick as I can. I have half an hour or so to get to the end. Am absolutely determined to go super fast fopr the last 9 miles.

The guy from Raynet seems to think otherwise. Would like me (and all other comers - there's about 20 riders still behind me) to give up.

Apparently the tandem - two blokes on a bike - has crashed and burned - their chain has also given up the ghost.
