FUNdraising for charity

Just received a letter today, inviting me to take part again in a charity bike ride. I have taken part each year for a number of years, either on my own or with my family, and raised quite a bit of sponsorship (never kept a total, though).

Will seriously have to think before entering this year, as my health has not been too good of late after an operation earlier in the year. Apparently been eating too much of the wrong sorts of food (sugary cakes and things) and not enough vegetables and it has played havoc with my digestive system. I suppose I have been so concerned in helping others that I have not looked after my self.

Perhaps I should give it a go again this year, as long as I do not try to race round the 20 mile course. It has always been a fun time, meeting other cyclists, getting out in the country and usually a nice sunny day and finishing with a picnic in the park.
