My saddle soars to new heights
Just wanted to say a massive thank you to everyone that supported me so generously in my Velo Birmingham efforts, raising funds for Cure Leukaemia and the great work being done at the QE's blood cancer centre. Together we raised £2k, or £20 per mile. The event was amazing. It's had its critics, but overall it was fantastic to take part in and has raised huge amounts of money for charities. The crowds along the route in towns and villages across Birmingham, the Black Country, Staffordshire and Worcestershire were wonderful and their enthusiasm was something to behold.
The hills were brutal, and 100 miles is a very long way, but bring on next year's Velo...

7yCongratulations Paul - a wonderful effort and a great sum raised. As a fellow Velo rider I know how difficult this was - and the hills were 'brutal'!
