At the age of two years and nine months, Daisy Adams from Bristol is riding 45 miles over the course of 12 days to raise money for Sands, the stillbirth and neonatal death charity. The distance represents a mile for every minute her sister lived.
Four years ago, Daisy’s sister, Lily, died of a heart defect when she was just 45 minutes old.
Writing on Just Giving, her mother Helen says that Daisy is sad about this and that the family visits Lily often.
Helen says Daisy is “bike mad” and learned to pedal when she was two years and two months.
She had already ridden over 10km in a day several times and she is now well on the way to hitting her 45-mile target.
On June 1 she was towed behind Helen’s bike for a little way and then did 7.7 miles on her own.
A day later she did 9.52 miles.
Then, after a few rest days (which apparently included BMX riding), she did another 11 miles yesterday, visiting Lily midway through the ride.
This means she is now only 17 miles away from finishing.
Daisy has so far raised almost £2,000 through her efforts. You can donate here.
I think it depends on the Lidl. There's two near me, one is just half a mile away and has been open over 20 years. The bike parking is not great,...
How about just putting the 20mph limits in wherever there's been a traffic collision? That could change the nature of motorways though.
Obviously we only have the snippets of information from the newspaper report, but Mr Brayley might be correct....

The Redshift bar has its potential uses; I've had a Giant Defy for a few years and I'm not as flexible now as when I bought it. I would really like...
Highway Code rule 237 If you are dazzled by bright sunlight, slow down and if necessary, stop.
Im betting these come out of the same factory as the SG and the Grip grab gloves. Identical apart from the Silicon overlay....
