So saddened to read this:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/engl ... 976050.stm
A remarkable lady who fought for others, right to the end.

May she rest in peace and let the memory of her feats inspire others.

Whilst out cycling a couple of years ago with a mate. We met Jane and her brother quite by chance during their epic ride from Rome to Leeds . They were pulled up on the side of the road at the village of Barton under Needwood Staffordshire . On Asking how far the couple had ridden {We did not know who it was to start with } until the lady stoker said Rome . I knew straight away , having seen coverage on the news . It was one of those moments in life that really makes you sit up and and think . ......
So if you ever think you are are having a bad day on the bike remember Jane Tomlinson .bagpuss0
