Six months ago I got back into cycling after a 20 odd year hiatus in that time I've clocked up over 3000 klm, got fit, lost some weight and met some really nice people.
Some of you may know through my other posts that my wife has MS, a disease she was diagnosed with in 2004. There is no known cause and no known cure for MS.
With most people of our age it's a case of the kids have all grown up and you can look forward to maybe the wife going back to work earning extra money for trips and the like or plan for retirement, maybe even a sea change.
The onset of MS has put heed to all these plans, it has dramatically changed our lives and our dreams.
I've seen a vibrant energetic woman who never smoked or drank become disabled, losing mobility and the strength to do things daily that most of us take for granted.
The group I ride regularly with on the weekends are planning a cycling classic to raise funds for charity including the MS Society- a 2 day event covering 320 klms from Armadale- Bunbury - Bunbury to Armadale (ABBA) to be held at this stage on the weekend of the 22-23 June.
If anyone would be interested in supporting this event, please PM me or if you want to remain anominous go to the link below "Everyday Hero" site we have set up for this charity.
