I will be taking part in a 100km cycling challenge for charity on Friday 9 September, starting and finishing at the London Olympic Velodrome (via Essex). As many of you know I am a novice at cycling compared to my mum so this will be a real test of my ability and endurance! 

I will be cycling in memory of my dad, who sadly passed away very suddenly on 11th May this year after a short battle with Cancer. He loved cycling himself, and always encouraged all of our family in this sport. 

The challenge is for 'Wheels for Change', an annual cycling challenge led by Barclays to raise money for The Prince's Trust. Please help sponsor me to raise money for this terrific cause which helps young people develop key skills, confidence and motivation to move into employment, education or training.

Any donations will be matched by Barclays so please donate whatever you can!
