    Hi folks,

    Please forgive me spamming your forums, but i've got another update to share with you all.

    I've just had notification that First Great Western have kindly upgraded me to first class on both legs of my journey with them which is from Plymouth to Penzance, and the Penzance to London Paddington leg.

    I'd best dig out some posh clothes so some snooty git isn't looking down his nose at me the whole journey

    Thanks again for your kindness


    Jo.

    Or if you're very posh you could have your butler do it

    Hi Folks,

    Just an update for you while I prepare everything for tomorrow.

    After my original target of £250 was smashed, by wonderful folks including yourselves, I've been advised to raise my target by the folks at NRAS HQ, they say that JustGiving often give this advice.

    I've set up a blog just for the rail race, which I'll keep updated if you'd like to follow it. You'll also find updates on Twitter if you look for the #nrasgrr tags, and there's also a Google Map

    Well I've got to make good use of that free first Class wifi

    Thanks again to everyone who has donated, you're all stars.

    Happy n safe Biking

    Jo.
