Well today's the day it's 5AM  hit the road in an hour to the meet point. It's about a 1/2hr ride from me at a good truckers stop have a bit of breakfast chow as other riders show up then we'll be on the road to join up with other riders at two other meeting points on the 140ml  run into London.
We'll be riding past Hyde Park along Park Lane  heading  past Trafalgar Square destination Big Ben and ride past the House of Parliament around 1 or 2 pm. It's going to be a long day in the saddle by the time I get back home. But well worth it for support of Soldier F

This is a street cam pic of Park Lane  today.  Park Lane runs along Hyde Park  central London.

That'll be me just on the right  ;D

      In all it was a great turn out all went smoothly.

It was a long long day though 11 and a half hours in the saddle by the time I got back home,.....but well worth the run.
