Question 1 – How much preparation have you done so far and how much do you plan on doing?
A little more than last time for sure. I ached for months after the last one with minimal training .

Question 2 – What do you think you will bring to the bike ride?
At the moment, I’m just hoping a bike.

Question 3 – What do you think will be the hardest aspect of the ride?
Attempting Corker Hill properly this time, steepest hill of the journey last time.

Question 4 – Who are you looking forward to biking with the most and the least?
The most? Corker purely for the comedy. The least? Nathan Brigham if we room again, he really knows how to take up a king size bed for a midget.

Question 5 – If you could choose any York City player either past or present to bike with you, who would it be?
Jon Challinor. The nicest man in football.

Question 6 – Do you predict any injuries or falls for yourself or other riders?
Ian to fall after 5 miles again. If Tom Poole goes I expect a lot of his time to be spent in the support vehicle.

Question 7 – What’s the first thing you’ll do when you finish?
Try and sell my bike again.
