I
took part in the annual Braveheart Cycle from my home town of Kilmarnock
yesterday. The Braveheart Fund was launched in 2003 by former British
champion, Motorola professional and Giro d’Italia survivor Brian Smith. Its aim
is simple: to raise the funds to allow young Scottish cyclists, be they
roadies, trackies or mountain bikers, to fulfil their potential.
I was
doing it with Tony and Danny who I completed the Etape with earlier in the
year. We took it at a casual place so we could stay together and enjoy the
chat.

Highlight
of my day was meeting World Champion (CycloX, Mountain Bike, Track and Road)
and Olympic Road Race gold medallist Marianne Vos. Truly one of
the greatest cyclists of all time. I was also fortunate enough to
meet Tour Legend Sean Kelly as well.
