6 days 20 hours 41 minutes and 40 seconds

So the count down is getting closer! In less than one week I will be setting off on my unicycle to cycle across the country!

Not too much has happened in the past few weeks, lots more cycling, going a bit faster and a bit further each time, just keeping the fitness up and making sure we are all organised!

One funny story though! I was cycling along, going pretty well, when out of nowhere I lost my balance and fell! This was a proper UPD, the gloves I had on had wrist protection which gave my hands no grip on the ground so I just slid out and scraped my elbows, knees and belly! Felt a bit dazed so sat on the floor for five mins to catch my breath.
Then a lovely lady pulled up in her car to see if I was ok and asked me what happened! I explained that I had just slipped and that my gloves made me fall flat on my face!
She looked suprised and said ‘Oh so your bike is meant to be like that!’. All I can think is that she thought that someone had attacked me and actually stole half my bike! Brings a new light to the old joke!

Anyway I will be tracking my progress using endomondo (http://www.endomondo.com/) on my phone. Should be able to see my live progress and I’m going to try and embed it here if I can. It is also posted on my facebook and twitter feeds so it will be easy access.

The hectic times are nearly over and the event is about to begin. This has been the hardest thing I have ever had to train for and I expect the challenge wont be much easier either.

See you all soon and if you do have anything spare please do give a little. Anything from 50p is welcome and helps a great deal.
