Next Sunday (June 27) is the 22nd edition of a rather special annual charity ride in the Chiltern Hills near Amersham, Buckinghamshire. This is the Wembley RC 30-mile event in aid of local charities. This time, Thames Hospice Care is to be the beneficiary.
It may be short by "sportive" standards, but this 30-mile popular hilly ride is tougher than experienced riders may care to admit to. TV commentator Phil Liggett, a former first category rider who aims to start will testify to that.
