Events: May 2008 Archives

14th - 22nd June 2008 is National Bike Week.  During the week, people will be encouraged to ditch the car or that pesky walking and get on a bike - possibly for the first time since childhood.  This year organisers are promoting family-oriented cycling and there are literally thousands of great events to get families cycling together and enjoying the Great British Countryside (let's hope for good weather in the Great British "Summer"), and so there are rides for all ages and abilities.

If you want to know more, or want to take part, check out the website and find an event near you.  Go on, get on your bike.

I'm very happy with my PB at the Charndon 5k last night.  22:39 is pretty good for me - especially since I was expecting to do a 24 minuter.  The race was mostly flat - a few bumps - and was very busy (maybe 200 people in total?). The weather was perfect for running and I really enjoyed it on the whole.  A few cooling pints of IPA afterwards topped it off nicely!

Anyway, nuff said.  Map of the route here (it was 5k honestly, despite my poor measuring...)
