In August, together with my son Tom and 40 other riders, I am cycling 1200 miles in 14 days from the CRUK HQ in Southampton to Rome - travelling across France, over the Alps and down through Italy.

CRUK is very close to our hearts - cancer has affected many people that we know and love, but every year research into new methods of diagnosis and treatment mean that fewer and fewer people will have to go through this in the future.

Any support you can give would be hugely appreciated and ALL money raised goes to Cancer Research UK.
