Thanks for visiting my blog. I'm new to this kind of thing, so please bear with me. I aim to use my blog to keep a record of my preparation for and participation in the 2010 Tour de Force.
The 2010 Tour de Force is an event run by a relatively small but established fund-giving charity, the William Wates Memorial Trust, set up to help disadvantaged children reach their full potential and stay away from crime. The Trust exists to celebrate the life of William Wates (1977 - 1996) who was tragically killed when travelling in South America. To date, the Trust has donated over £1m and helped more than 8,000 young people through organisations such as Fairbridge, Springboard and LIFE.
Completing the entire route of the 2010 Tour de France will be some challenge - I've cycled single stages of the Tour in 2007 and 2008, so can imagine how difficult it might be to ride two consecutively. But the work of the William Wates Memorial Trust and donations from friends and family will provide a much-needed source of inspiration as I struggle up the next col.
