Day 1 – Birmingham to Alcester

Starting my journey from home near Birmingham, UK, I was overwhelmed by the support of everyone who came to see me off.

A special thank you to those who joined me for the ride to Alcester—your company made the departure even more memorable, and the party poppers were a delightful touch! The weather couldn’t have been better; it was a stunning evening for cycling.

Our route took us along the National Cycle Network, weaving through Redditch before reaching Alcester. We arrived to the sweet surprise of a beautiful Victoria Sponge, a perfect way to end the ride.
