    Welcome home.. [smiley=vrolijk_26.gif]

    Will miss my early morning texts

    You did great Jackie and in a way I'm sure you will appreciate it all the more as it threw up more obstacles than the group was expecting (like having to ride for a day on a banana sandwich) !
    Makes your achievement all the better.

    What are you going to do to top this next year

    Hey everyone [smiley=vrolijk_26.gif]
    Got back home last night about 21:30 then had to nip straight out to get some milk for a much deserved bucket of tea! ;D
    First of all I must say a HUGE thank you to you all for the encouragement and sponsorship, we were told on Friday night that the 5 groups who are doing the Cycle Kenya ride have so far raised between them 1.6 million pounds, with money still coming in. and without the encouragement and support from you I would have found some parts really tough going.
    I'd never been to Kenya and was surprised at how green and mountainous it is we had a Kenyan lady cycle with us, and she kept reminding us that when the British Army go to Kenya to train they normally have at least a week to aclimatize before they start any strenuous exercise, less than 24 hours after arriving we were embarking on the first 99km ride!!
    It was a tough 5 days cycling, I didn't cycle the whole 400k, umm, I saw my breakfast twice on the first day :-/ (Gerry described it as a Puketastic day!) so the dr recommended a ride on the bus for a bit.
    Day 3 was the climb out of the rift valley, it was unbelievably hot and I only managed 17 of the 27km climb, out of 63 of us only 10 super women managed the full 27km climb.
    Our accommodation generally wasn't too bad, however on Wednesday we had to stay in the most grotty 'hotel' and that certainly was the low point
    The Kenyan people were so cheerful and we often had groups of children cheering us on, Kenyans don't cycle up hills, seeing 63 women cycling up hills must have amused them no end!!
    I'll get my photos downloaded and post a select few up for everyone to see soon.

    It's Lilac... not pink!
