Red Nose Spinning..........!

On Friday evening I went off to my gym to take part in my Friday night spin...but this time in my Red Nose uniform. Managed to raise £45 with promises of more next week.

I have arranged with my gym that I will organise a Spinning marathon in aid of Prostate Cancer, probably in June.
