Going through some old boxes today and found the bits I kept from the time I was involved in an @comicrelief challenge with the @bbconeshow and @christinelampard skiing across the channel. Was something very special to be involved in and nice to look back on!! So much was raised for such a great cause. Maybe I’ll sit down one day and watch it again. Just need to get it all framed now.

The challenge was to ride 300km in the month of March to raise money for @breastcancernow and show some support to my friend @tara.barnesski, I decided to do it in one hit. Somehow I manage to talk @nuttyski in to doing it with me, not sure he’ll talk to me again, (apparently he has 5 new vans, seems your mind starts playing tricks on you after a while)

We made it all the way in just under 12 hours in the saddle but nearly 15 hours from start to finish the strong winds didn’t help. No doubt we only made it because of the amazing crew we had around us throughout the day. Special mention to Big Al who sat in a car all day with supplies, spares and motivational comments. The support riders(to many to mention) that came and went throughout the day, all socially distanced of course and the others that came out their house, wrote messages on the road or stopped on their daily commutes to cheer us on!!

Between us we had two break downs, a puncture and a pedal break. Both happening to me. Must be the power I was outputting 🤣🤣. Front light failed about 20km from the end, coming down a steep hill at 40mph with ambient light from another rider is strangely exciting!!!...

Me personally had only one moment of doubt after about 175km due to lack of fuel, quick stop to eat again and that was it. Still felt strong at the end and was buzzing at the finish!! Stairs seemed challenging last night but ok this morning, about to go and work on a building site today up and down ladders 🤣🤣

The messages of support and catching up with every after was great, the donations that have come in have meant we have so fair raise just under 4K which is amazing, I can’t thank you enough. Donations can be made here. 😉

The only question have now is “what’s next and what other dumb friends. Am I talk in to doing it with me?” 🤔....

This time tomorrow with the help of a number of people along the way I will hopefully be nearing the end of the 300km ride for @breastcancernow and @tara.barnesski.

Thanks to all that have donated so far and the help of John Battleday, I have raised just over £3000. Stay tuned for something to help persuade you to donate more tomorrow.

To raise money for @breastcancernow they have set the challenge of riding 300KM (187miles) in the month of March.

Being I ride already and the fact that a friend is currently under going treatment for this, I have decided to attempt the 300KM in one go. It will take a round 12/13 hours moving time, the pain and suffering will be nothing compared to what many people go through when they are diagnosed with any form of cancer.

Please spare what you can using the link below. Thanks to all those that have already donated!! 🙏🙌🏼

Date of the ride is to be confirmed as we get towards March and we can see what the weather is doing. Come and join me for any part of the ride.

A friend once told me I am a person of extremes so decided to challenge myself today.

Accidentally stopped my garmin a little over half way through but the aim was 200km (125miles) on the bike irrespective of how long it took. Need to figure out how to merge the two rides!!

First 80km (50miles) solo before picking up the support crew of @nuttyski and Pete Benton for the next 120km (75miles). I wouldn’t have finished without them. Mental and physical challenge but not sure which is tougher. Definitely went to some dark places but hopefully will see the benefits once we can get back on the water.

Time to recover for the next one!!

Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!

Thank you to all our members and guest that have supported us yet again this year and to all the 2020 staff. The place is what it is because of you all.

Thanks to @midlands_nautique for your support and awesome after sales care. #bestinthebusiness

Thanks to all at @bwswhq for the work behind the scenes, canvassing the relevant people to get us back on the water in the times of uncertainty #greatlyappreciated

Its been a strange year and hopefully 2021 will prove to be better but on Boxing Day we move in to tier 4 so to be able to continue operating we have had to adapt our operating procedures yet again.

We are allowed to stay OPEN.

The government have been a little more sensible this time allowing outdoor sports facilities to remain open so read the new procedures below.
Covid rules take 10 (T4) :
You can do sport with one other person so one on the dock and one in the lake max (or one family/household),

Still no indoor changing or toilet facilities(unless an emergency),
I will trust you to read the rules for travel between tiers and be sensible.

Bookings are all still online only

No socialising in the carpark.

Essentially turn up kitted up or ready to change in/by your car, ski, then go its winter now so that's probably not going to be too difficult.

See you all on the other side

Nothing better than a birthday ski in 6°c water!!
