The FireFlies TOUR 2019 · 12 June 2019 to 19 June 2019 ·

We're dedicated to beating blood cancer. We fund research and support those affected. Since 1960, we've invested over £500 million in blood cancer research, transforming treatments and saving lives. The day we beat blood cancer is now in sight and our researchers are determined to finish the job.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I will be spending 8 days in June this year riding from Innsbruck to Cannes with The FireFlies. This is a distance of roughly 1000kms, with a total vertical climbing of about 25000 metres. That means we will be climbing the equivalent of the height of Everest - 3 times over - whilst riding the same distance that it is from London to Brighton and back every day.

It's hard. Really very hard - especially when you have a body that was born in the '60's.

As most of you know, this isn't my first Rodeo, I've completed the FireFlies in Europe four times now - and ridden the equivalent ride in the US twice. So I've done a lot of cycling but more importantly, I've raised a lot of money in the fight against Cancer, of which the battle against Blood Cancers is widely agreed to be the key. And yet again I find myself surrounded by people I love who's lives are being affected by this every day; so its time to go again.

I know its difficult to find spare cash - but if you can find it in your heart to sponsor my ride I promise I'll be suffering throughout, this isnt something I take on lightly.

Thanks in advance - I love you!
