Since starting Le Cure, Amanda has cycled the equivalent of the height of Mount Everest 8.95 times, and cycled around the m25 14.31 times! That's 79,201 vertical metres and 2,691 kilometres.

After a break of 3 years, and losing another family member to cancer, I've decided that its time to get back in the saddle and do some fundraising for this amazing charity. I am 8 years older than when I first took part, and it was extremely challenging then, so I am a bit daunted by the task ahead this year.

Le Cure Highlight:

Too many to name. Lovely chats up long climbs, meeting amazing people with their own stories and motivations, the stunning climbs and the fantastic support crew.

Toughest Moment:

Rose tinted glasses make these disappear fairly quickly, but there have definitely been some tough moments on the hills. The cold is a constant battle for me, so as long as the sun is shining, I'm happy.

Top Tip

The joy is in the company. If you are a speed demon, take time to ride with, and encourage, the slower curistas, even for a few km. It will be appreciated. If you are more of a plodder, then take it slow and easy, the days are long but we all get there in the end.
