Updated

Strava and my page now seem to be synchronised and missing rides added to total.
All seems good now

Strava not showing correctly

All my rides are logged with Strava but not showing correctly I’ll update manually and contact combat stress about the erroneous readings

How long have I been cycling for

Just a wee note on this. Until 10 weeks ago I hadn’t cycled for 40 years. Yes I have only been cycling for 10 weeks! Am I mad???? Probably but I have to prove to myself that being almost 60 doesn’t mean you can’t make life changing decisions and when you give it 110% anything is possible (remind me of this when I’m done and my miles are totted up)
800kms to go or 500 miles in old money which is almost Dunfermline to Plymouth to give you an idea how far that is.

Target distance

My goal is 350 miles but if my legs hold up I’m aiming to complete the 500 miles
All logged through zepp app linked to Strava and then linked to my profile.
I’m doing a practice run by doing 350 miles in cycle august for prostate cancer then straight into cycle september for combat stress. 
As a veteran who has suffered in the 25 years since leaving the forces this means a lot to me, my final move to give back something.

I'm taking part in the Combat Stress CycleSeptember challenge!

This year I will be taking on CycleSeptember and cycling 800 kilometers to raise vital funds for life-changing mental health treatment for veterans.

Combat Stress is the UK's leading charity for veterans' mental health. For over a century, they've helped former servicemen and women deal with issues like trauma, anxiety, depression and post-traumatic stress disorder. Today, they provide support to veterans from every service and every conflict.

I’m taking vital steps towards ensuring veterans can get the support they need.

Thank you so much for your support.
