Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page!

I have taken up the challenge of cycling 72 miles on Saturday 1st June 2013 through the hilly and challenging terrain of the Scottish Borders! For those of you who know me; I'm a keen cyclist, but not quiet keen enough to cycle this far so I thought this year I would push the boundaries and cycle further than I ever had before...(I may need an emergency chocolate bar or two for the finish line to get me there).

The Sportive cycle ride is run by Bethany Christian Trust, an Edinburgh based charity who work with vulnerable and homeless people in Scotland. Their work helps those who often don't have the support or basic resouces that they need in our society; it's frightening to think that in the UK people can still spend days, nights, months even years living on the edge and without a roof over their head in 2013. What's more, Bethany, like me, are celebrating a major milestone this year when they reach their 30th birthday this spring so I am keen to support the charity by taking part in this great event!
