A Year in the Saddle - A new record in the making??

The women's world record for most miles cycled in a year stands at 29,603 and was set 77 years ago by Betty Tovey (later Fleming) on a 3 speed bike -impressive! On 1st Jan 2016, Nottingham based Kajsa Tylen sets out to break that record. Kajsa's mission is "to get adults active and to feel good about themselves, in order to set a good example for the next generation."  You can find out more about Kajsa's world record attempt here: http://www.ayearinthesaddle.com/

The attempt starts on New Years day and is due to call in on Stoke Golding, near Nuneaton, on its first day.

Good luck to Kajsa on your record attempt.
