Cardiff to Bristol

Who fancies a short jaunt from Cardiff to Bristol on a bike? As posted on this blog just a few weeks ago I set out three bike rides that were going to take place in 2013.  The main purpose of these rides is to get as many people together as possible and have fun.  At the same raise some money for St Peters Hospice.  Across the three rides I have targeted we raise £1000 from donations made by those participating.  Achieving this target would be an excellent effort and a personal triumph. 

The first of the three scheduled bike rides is fast approaching.  A number of people have asked me to organize a short (ish) fun ride to remember Caroline.  On 13^th April a group of us will gather in Cardiff Bay setting off to Millennium Square, Bristol.  A mere 50 miles! www.bikely.com/Cardiff-to-Bristol-cycle-route * note route may be amended.

The route is fairly flat, although there are a couple of climbs.  If you want to participate could you email me on pwatson64@me.com .  You should ensure that you have plenty of fluid, energy bars and bananas.  Pack wet gear and spare inner tubes just in case.  Highly recommend everyone should wear a helmet. Most of all enjoy yourself. 

Any supporters who want to cheer us on at the start in Cardiff or to see us home in Bristol are more than welcomed.

The completion of the ride means only one thing.  The day has only just begun.  As it is my birthday the following day I plan to hit Bristol on the evening.  I will be booking a luxuriously decorated room at Shanghai Nights for a night of fun and Karoke.    http://shanghainightsbristol.co.uk/karaoke.html. Hopefully we can get 30 to 40 people together to have a great night and celebrate my birthday.  The itinerary is below:
