Hello all, it's been a while since I've blogged anything (if you discount Twitter) on here so thought it was about time I blew some of the dust and cobwebs away!

I've not had any races since the Cairngorm Classic a few weeks back which has actually felt a bit odd after the intensity of all the racing in May. It's given me a bit of a chance to recover from it all but I've still be training pretty hard, especially on the bike.

This coming weekend myself and Dave are heading down to Wanlockhead in Dumfriesshire for the Southern Uplands Sportive aka The Radar 105. The Radar in the name is because the race finishes at the radar station atop Lowther Hill and the 105 is for the distance. 105 miles. Pretty far, huh?

I'll put up a full write up of the event later this week but I'd once again like to extend my greatest thanks again to everyone who has donated so far, we've broken the £200 mark on JustGiving and I'm sure there's still more to go yet!

If you would like to donate you can do it easily through JustGiving or the BHF Gift of Hope that's been setup in Ians name.
