I have been cycling a lot recently. Why, I hear you ask? Well the London Cycle Challenge is up and running. The idea is that you form a team and then try to rack up as many miles as you can during June.Wisely Transport for London have organised teams into a number of categories:
Category 1 : 2-10 members
Category 2 : 11-50 members
Category 3 : 51-100 members
Category 4 : 101+ members
To make it fairer each category is also split into social groups and workplaces.
So how is team FOTL doing? Well, bearing in mind we only have four members, not too bad. To date we are languishing at number 3, below Team SK and 59 miles behind the Category 1 leader, London Rollergirls.
Last week we topped up our mileage to the tune of 50 miles by doing an evening cycle along the Thames to Woolwich. It looks like this will doing this again on Thursday although the weather is looking nasty with several storms heading our way. Oh well, what’s a little rain between friends…
