Springing Into Action

It seems that Spring has finally arrived and I've found the motivation to get back out on the bike and sort out some more details for the charity ride. We're currently sorting out the donation page so you can all sponsor us and give money to the orphange and help the children's education and provide them with food. It looks like we'll have a decent number of riders, but to encourage those who don't want to commit to 87 miles we are running a shorter 47 mile ride that takes in the latter part of the loop.

There are 15 weeks left until the event. That's going to fly by quicker than you can imagine. Some of our riders are perhaps a little behind in their preparations (John still hasn't got tyres on his bike!), but there is still plenty of time to get those training miles in.

John and some others flew out to Uganda in January and visited the Namisindwa orphange. We hope to provide a report and pictures soon.
