Bristol Deaf Club Ride – the results

Posted on June 17, 2011

Well, I don’t know if any of you heard, but the official ride got cancelled by Bristol City Council because there was a) a crash on the Portway (A4) and b) flooding on the portway.

Having asked people for sponsorship we decided that we’d better do something, so after some debate we headed up to Clifton and did a ride down towards Clevedon, and back through Nailsea and Long Ashton, parting ways at Ashton Court, like this:

For those people that sponsored me I have to now ask you whether you still want to give me some money despite the fact that we didn’t do the original length and route that we set out to do – for what it’s worth we all got very wet, we had one minor crash and several near misses and only stopped for one hot chocolate.

Here’s a picture of me and a fellow Taekwon-Do enthusiast doing side kicks in our gear at the exit of Ashton Court too:
