    Tell you, what, I'll sit in a nice warm studio talking to sports has-beens, and she can to a 150mile ride around N.Wales, trying to find warmth, shelter from the wind and no hills !

    I think there is some stat that more people have climbed Everest than have swum the channel. Swimming the channel is defo not easy - I think cycling 150 miles once is a lot easier - if you did it slowly over 15 hours, it would be like walking a marathon - long, but not hard.... Although I'm not sure whether dodging ferries and container ships is better or worse than dodging traffic!

    Sure - I know 3 channel swimmers and they're tough. You're at the mercy of the currents too - if the tide turns on you - you can be as strong as you like and you'll not get to France. And dont forget - no wetsuit. Must be like going out cycling in winter in shorts. Brrrr.
