Its for charity mate

With yours truly just getting over a bout of covid and his support team off with bereavement and covid the fundraising for charity fell squarely on the shoulders of the apprentice who in a rash moment declared he would raise money by cycling 20 miles for comic relief. 
Never having cycled more than half a dozen miles this was something of a challenge, even on Zwift, but he set a cracking pace getting a PB for 5 miles.
He certainly showed he has determination 
and under the watchful gaze of several K9s 
he pressed on, note the folded towel, he has discovered how uncomfortable bike saddles are!
Finally he crossed the finish line
really happy
if a tad exhausted.
His lil bro RRMK2 made supportive comments 
and after some cola 
the apprentice hobbled back in to the cottage 
a bit sore but very proud.
20 miles in one hour 35, amazing effort and he raised about £350 for comic relief. Yours truly is a very proud Dad. Its nice to have children who are so caring and well adjusted, who want to contribute to society. I am a lucky man.
