It was an exciting day on Saturday. We finally managed to get our bikes sorted which we picked up from Kontour Cycles in Polegate. They (Adam) have been incredibly helpful in getting the right bikes and the right kit.

The delay in getting the bikes has obviously meant a delay on our road training however today we put it our first decent ride (before the pain in our behinds got the better of us!!). Although warned I never believed that cycling could cause so much discomfort to your rear… some serious padded shorts are going to be needed!

Setting of for our first ride - 30 miles in 2.5 hours, average speed just under 13mph (15mph is the target for the average speed during the challenge… a good start!?)
