The day has finally arrived. No time for any more training and if I haven't packed what I needed then tough - I'd have to do without. My wife came down with me yesterday to the Holiday Inn, Bexley. Thankfully we made it in time for the evening check in. There are some seriously nice bikes here - probably worth a bob or two!! About 75 riders in all, of all shapes and sizes, rolled up to the start line this morning. In the briefing we were informed that together we had raised £73k for Christian Aid - an excellent effort all round.
My wife has taken a few photos of the start. The first part of the ride was fairly hilly and there's more to come before we reach Dover. I'll keep you posted as to how the rest of the journey goes.
