Leah Afiabo came along to help, and told us about her sore knee, which required a minor operation, and her hopes of recovery. She might be riding a bicycle for a few weeks now. Bill Stefaniak also came to help record finishers today. The cyclists are now at a bit of a disadvantage these days, since the railings around the underpass were removed a few weeks ago. But they made good use use of some of the posts which are around the area.
