Hilton wrote 1st Race Day is here!
Just a little update while I wait to start todays event. This isn't the Cardiff ride (thats next sat) this is the Long Course Weekend.
I have entered the 42 mile ride to losen the legs ready for next week. My start time is 12:30 and I am looking to do it in about 3 & a half hours, need to pace myself and take my time as I don't want to get injured for obvious reasons!
I will try get some pics and have them up later, thanks for all the donations so far! Can't believe how much we have raised! Remember you can keep donating up untill Friday10th July.
See you later
Hope all went well today, look forward to seeing these images!

Hi guys,
The event went well, for any of you that know what the "Iron Man" is, the route we were on yesterday is the 3rd hardest Iron Man route in the world. I have a few pics for you with some stats.
I did forget to start Strava (app that measures time/distance/elevations etc etc) until 3 miles in haha typical.

Another update...
So went out for a short 6 mile ride tonight to stretch the legs from yesterdays event. Only got 3 miles and I came off!
I'm ok, just got no skin on one side of my body hahaha but the bran new shorts and top I bought didn't survive and my front tyre exploded. I'm lucky that the helmet I bought, if you register it online they will replace it free of charge if you fall off... oh wait I didn't register it -__- so need a new helmet too as head hit the floor pretty hard.
All fun and games, mates thought it was funny lol, bike is going into the shop to be sorted out ready for Saturday.

If you get in the hospital just put up another GoFundMe for your medical expenses.
