I Did It!!!!! :o)

My friend Anne & I completed the Liverpool-Chester Bike Ride today! Altogether I cycled 34 miles from my house & back again! It was a really brilliant experience. The weather was really, really hot. The other cyclists were friendly for the most part & the views were fabulous! Riding up out of the Queensway Tunnel at the end was hard going but the cheers & support of the Davies Tribe plus our friends & the other spectators spurred us on!
Huge thankyous to my parents who provided a lovely picnic at the half way point. It was much appreciated! Also thanks to Anne for coming with me for moral support. I am so glad to be able to call you a friend. It was fun to cycle the day away with you! And for those of you who don't know, I did the cycle ride to raise money for Stop the Traffik an organisation that works in the UK & all over the world helping people who have been sold into slavery, seeking to raise awareness of human traffiking & working to see an end to this awful trade. If you would like to sponsor me too please go to my Just Giving page HERE or text EMLY76 £2 to 70070 which donates £2 to Stop the Traffik (the text is free so it only costs you £2). Thankyou to everyone who has sponsored me so far. It really means a lot to me. And now it's time for a soak in the bath before I am unable to climb the stairs!! :o)

WELL DONE
Hope you're not TOO stiff today- or sunburnt.
It's good to raise the cash too but I'm sad too as it's a charity that shouldn't need to be in existence at all. Humans!
Have a good day
Love Mumxxxxxxx
