On the 17th April 2010, I will be setting off from London to Beijing on a Motorbike (the one in the pictue) with fourteen other like minded people

This will take 11 weeks and 20,000 km through South East Europe, Central Asia into China, via Tibet.  From the Caspian sea to Mount Everest Base Camp, this will not be a "walk in the park"

http://darransdiarylondontobeijing.blogspot.com/ i have set up for anyone interested in following my journey

I have funded the cost of the trip myself and it would really mean something to raise money for a charity

Why MacMillan? Well my Dad suffered from Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia until his death on the 9th December 2007 and i cannot thank Macmillan enough, especially the nurses, for the care and support they offered to him and my Mum throughout the difficult times
