Odd sighting in Edinburgh

Things you do not expect to see , The new Married Time Lord’s TARDIS

Circle complete

During the weekend I’ve participated in the Glasgow to Edinburgh Challenge ride , for me this was closing a circle .

As last year I considered this ride the starting point of the training for the L2P , completing this event today was my inner way of closing this chapter and moving on.
This years ride was along the same route as last year but the weather was not as accommodating with winds and some rain , I had a much easier time with the physical aspect , but also it was a one long cycling trail as we were told there we 16,000 ( yes ,you are reading correctly) rides taking part in the event .
This caused the entire length of the path to be full of riders and also in some place made overtaking the slow rides difficult ( and some time down right dangerous ) as the morons where riding two abreast and blocking the path, and if you wanted to go past them, you had to move in to the car’s lane.

So , as this is the last entry regarding the L2P cycling and related activities , the Blog will change it’s focus in the coming weeks , But do keep coming back as this will be the place to hear about my next Failed saving Throw.

Last Collection

In the 3-4 of September I spent the days in the Pets at Home branch in Hemel for the last time raising money for the L2P cycling .

The full amount for the ride is due for the 10/9 , and the amount needed is £1350 , which is another £250 from the amount i raised so far.

Although I had to cut my stay short ( only half a day on Sunday), I managed to raise £298.28, which nearly brought me to the £1400 I wanted to raise ( I would have been happy to get even more), but I do feel satisfied about the amount I was able to gather from Friends , co-workers and on donations.

 

Thank you All for donating .
