DF Awareness ride

We are a group of individuals coming together once a year on bikes to try and raise awareness of the rising burden of DF amputation to patients and the NHS

....And its a wrap. 89 miles done today. All home safe and glad to be finished. Please do make sure you tell all you can about the dangers of #diabetes and the appalling amputation rate? Otherwise this has all been in vain. We’ll be back next year in Malvern. #DFAware2019

So, we’re done with the Island. 66 miles done, everyone round safely and some incredible views on the Isle of Wight. Some tired legs after the hills, but feeling good. 11 miles left when we get back to Lymington and the #DFAware2019 ride will be finished for this year. ✅❤️💪

41 miles done so far today, so lunch is required. Slight map issue, so we’ve lost ⁦@GrahamBowen7⁩ who’s already in Ventnor, we’ve stopped in Shanklyn. All safe, all is good. #DFAware2019

@mjtownson Thanks Mile, will do. Appreciate the message 👌🚴

Day 2 of the #DFAware2019 and we’ve made it down to the ferry at Lymington (11 miles done). Off for the real challenge of the ride, 63 miles but 5,500 feet of climbing. Lots of coffee and nervous banter about! #Hilly

@DF_Aware_ride Good lads great effort keeping the profile high to help prevent this massively physical and psychological harm which is becoming a far too prevalent and ‘acceptable’ outcome of diabetes- keep peddling 👍🏻⛰🚴‍♂️

We’ve arrived at Yarmouth! Time to cycle! #DFAware2019
