My story

 

Hi! Thanks for taking the time to read this and to consider making a donation to this worthwhile cause. My name is Karina Gallagher. I was diagnosed with breast cancer in December 2002 - just six months after I had passed my bike test.. When the opportunity came to take part in the first Amazon Heart UK ride (Changing Gears 2005) I jumped at the chance! Unfortunately, after my surgery I was no longer able to handle my Suzuki and I had to sell it. Since I'd always fancied a Harley-Davidson, and I needed a new bike for the ride.. it was the perfect opportunity to treat myself to a Harley-Davidson XL883! I love owning a Harley and am a proud (if not very active) member of my local HOG Chapter, Clyde Valley.

To read more about me, please visit my rider profile at:

This year's UK ride will run from Aviemore to London from August 26 - September 1 and will benefit Helen Rollason Heal Cancer Charity as well as Amazon Heart Trust UK.

Visit www.amazonheartthunder.org for more information on this very special event.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Helen Rollason Heal Cancer Charity will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

Many thanks for your support.
