Fractured scaphoid

Friday 5th Sep
When lime bikes give you lemons - or in my case a fractured wrist - tell em to shove it and reimagine what's possible...

After smooth sailing during training over summer, I came off a lime bike of all things in Hackney a couple of weeks back during a stupid morning rush to the gym ... Fractured scaphoid and my plans of cycling from @stchrishospice to Versailles on 10 September were in tatters ... 

But after some frantic emailing of anyone and everyone who worked with recumbents ( h/t @louisanerssessian ) I've found a one-handed solution. Huge thanks to Oliver at london recumbents whose blind faith has given me all the risk confidence I need.

So I'm still off to Versailles, and if I can do that with a broken wrist then you can sponsor me and support hospice care!! Donate at link in bio - we leave Wednesday !!! 

Dream big be brave !!!
