Cycle 300 Miles in June

I'm taking on the Cycle 300 Miles in June Challenge

Did you know that 1 in 8 men in the UK will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime?

I’m taking on the Cycle 300 Miles in June Challenge for PCR to change this and help make a difference to men and their families who have been affected by prostate cancer.

Please support me during this challenge by donating what you can to Prostate Cancer Research. Every donation you make helps advance our mission to create a world free from the impact of prostate cancer.

Thank you for your support! 💙🧡

Day 10

Wednesday 10th Jun
13.37 miles after work. The weather's all over the place atm but came out nice after work.  Think i'm 20 miles behind where I should be for day 10 but happy with that with the weather, work, mini racing and other stuff going on atm. Forcast for tomorrow looks awful but hopeful to get some decent miles in over the weekend. 

Day 8

Monday 8th Jun
9.73 miles tonight. Lovely evening. Rode into town and back to have a meal with folks. Official tshirt arrived in the post so will model that tomorrow. 
Need to check the overall milage as my bike computer is saying 85.9 but I'm sure it's less. I thought it was in the mid 60s. The computer is wireless and i cleared the daily total away from the wheel sensor so wounder if its got confused. Need to Google and keep and eye on that! 

Day 7

Sunday 7th Jun
22.28 miles this morning. First time out in the dry! Total miles 57.1 

Day 6

Saturday 6th Jun

11.17 miles. Ride cut short due to a storm blowing in around 7 miles in.  

Day 3

Wednesday 3rd Jun
5 miles before breakfast / work.
Aiming to get out again later this evening to chase a few miles after work / between rain storms. 

Edit 
This evening managed 8.96 miles giving a  daily total 13.96. Grand total 23.68. 

Also worked out how to reset my daily mileage (dist) but keep the overall milage (odo) on my bike computer. Which will make updating this a lot easier

Wednesday 3rd Jun
No miles yesterday due to personal admin 

Day 1

Monday 1st Jun
9.72 miles. Rain and brand new tyers (Vittoria Randonneur 700x32) made for a slippery start. 

Forcast for tomorrow.... more 🌧  great 👌
