My story

I am now undertaking this challenge for my dad who sadly passed away on the 21st February 2012. I suppose I always was really, which is why the route passes through Chesterfield and just want to make him proud. 

If you knew my dad, Dane, please feel free to leave comments below because I will keep them and treasure them forever.

The challenge is to cycle from Blackpool Tower to the Tour d'eiffel in Paris. This will (hopefully) take 1 week & also lead to a slimmer fitter me! The main beneficiary charity is Challenge 4 Change but a number of other charities will also benefit.
