Bristols Biggest Bike Ride.


The week past was the National Cycling week in U.K . Annually it is celebrated with a wide variety of cycling events throughout the week, and in Bristol, the event is marked by "Bristol`s Biggest Bike ride".
Bristol`s Biggest Bike ride is the U.K`s biggest free non-competitive cycling event and is now in its 14th year. It includes a series of courses to suit people of all fitness levels and ages and includes the following:

The Family Fiesta (about 9 miles)
The Avon Gorge Loop (13 miles)
The Failand Heights Ride (18 miles)
The Sustrans Ride to Portishead (24 miles)
The Clevedon Challenge (38 miles)

This year a record 4000 cyclists registered to take part in Bristol`s Biggest Bike ride..and as the proud owner of a cycle, I didnt want to be left out..so inspite of a rainy morning, and still slightly hung over from the previous nights barbeque party, I was determined to join in.

My frieds John, Thanu and Passy were going too and that gave me more inspiration not to drop out. ..and so it was that we ended up choosing the 18 mile Failand Heights Ride...

To summarise here is the video:

Whew..that took the wind out of me..I`m exhausted!
