London to Brighton Cycle Ride

bhfdock2006 was the eighth time we have done the ride. Over the years we have raised something like £1,500 for the British Heart Foundation.

Many people helped us this year; we parked the car at Natsa's house in Croydon on Saturday, and then cycled to Kate's house in Clapham, where we stayed the night.

We were in Brighton at 11:15, 5 hours after we set off. The speed was very simlar to last year's. Hil now has a new bike, and found the ride the easiest yet. Richard got all the way up Ditchling Beacon again.

Here's our statistics for the last 2 years.
