Jane's latest challenge is to cycle from Rome to Leeds, a 2,500 miles journey. Husband Mike writes a daily diary of the trip. Day 30 - Folkstone to London.

They may be back in England but the journey hasn't eased with an 80 mile stint through Kent. In driving rain the ride took 11 hours with a finish at 6.50pm.

The route was to take them to Docklands but was extended to central London as a 7.20am slot on GMTV was booked. Both Jane and Luke were exhausted on arrival with Jane in some considerable pain.

The journey to central London had been hair-raising with the capital's drivers being described by all the cyclists as the worst they had come across. A couple of times they were nearly taken off their bike as drivers were showing their impatience.

It's a heavy media day for Jane tomorrow with five TV interviews booked before 9am. A highlight of the day will be an arrival at the Sky studios in West London as Jane will get to meet the presenters who have been faceless to her for the last four weeks.

Jane is still unwell with severe pain. With the ride's finish only six days away she will need to dig deep to finish.
