This is a blog to cover my little adventure of cycling from London to the French Alps, followed by some mountaineering, in Aug/Sept 2010.

The cycle ride is to raise money for charity, The Princes Trust. Please enjoy the read, the photos and the videos, and I hope that my physical, narrative and pictorial efforts not only entertain you in your lunch break or whenever you are reading this, but also inspire you to give some of your hard-earned cash to charity, to help those who need a little extra support so that they can make the right next step in their lives.

cosmic

Just a quick interim msg from the mountains to the blogosphere. Matterhorn is off for this trip after snow in the alps. From tues we have been working round the weather, including a fell run with 740m of ascent, phew, still suffering a bit from that! some scrambling in the aig. rouges yesterday and a couloir climb today. Note to self, always put the big down gloves on before the hot aches from cold hands starts. Oh yes, and we broke trail on the knife edge midi arete in fresh snow - full on! Ahh the cosmiques hut is cosy after all that!
