Ride on Nelly!

.

This weekend we will be cycling a whooping 160km in loving memory of Nelson Pratt, pro snowboarder, friend and keen cyclist who tragically died last summer. MINT founder Tammy Esten willl be joining 500 other cyclists on this sellout, superb cycling sportive in the stunning Test Valley, near Andover.

We will be raising money for the events official charity partner CALM, The Campaign Against Living Miserably, which was set up to prevent male suicide, currently the single biggest killer of young men in the UK.

Any donations to this incredibly worthwhile cause are hugely appreciate, no matter what you can afford. Please help support Tammy in this event by making a small donation via Just Giving: http://bit.ly/17wk7d9

Tammy’s training has been rather limited, being able to count on the fingers of one hand the number of training rides (which stopped 3 weeks prior to the event!). She has been focusing more on cross training activities, mainly climbing! Check out some photos from her training rides below.

All respectable bike rides involve a boat! With Hannah from Treeline Chalets.

The bike ride might have been rewarding, but the views were pretty average!
