Four weeks minus one day to go (because I am disorganised)
First of all, thank you very much to Wossname: Newsletter of the Klatchian Foreign Legion and Discworld Monthly for your respective signal boosts for Lilac to Ventoux. Much appreciated! And greetings to any new readers who might have come here as a result of this signal-boosting.
Secondly, thank you to Martie H for your donation this week! We're up to £75 on the JustGiving page now, and $25 in other donations, for which my thanks to everyone.
The keen-eyed among you will have noticed that there is no longer a goal figure of £2000 on the JustGiving page. This is because I was getting seriously stressed about (not) meeting the goal, and it was starting to ruin the experience of doing something positive for Alzheimer's. I remembered something Arni had said about my attitude to cycling up the Keutenberg - he said instead of thinking "I'm never going to make it!", why don't I turn that around to "Let's see how far I can get"? This struck me as very good advice, not just for riding up mountains fiendishly steep hills, but also for the fundraising. So that's why I've changed my JustGiving page.
This weekend, I'm hoping to go back to Margraten, with the Powerbikers this time, to get some more climb-kilometres in my legs. I'm really looking forward to it! Even the Keutenberg, if we do that. :P
Thanks for listening!
Camilla
