I’ve completed the Spud Riley. I think pain and suffering best describes the ride. At times, it felt as if the sole reason for the ride is to cause misery to the riders.
It wasn’t just the climbs, it was the rain, wind and mist. Oh yes, and mud. But we persisted and raised over £100,000 for Christie appeal — a cancer charity in the North West.

Fantastic – well done Jan!
We congratulate you on this great effort Jan. We’re proud of you and Christies is a good cause.
Hope you have now recovered as I heard you were making a presentation yesterday. Hope this went well.
