Hello, and welcome to the Heavy Metal Truants Justgiving Page.

So far we’ve raised £340,000 pounds for kids – let’s triple it!

It’s about more than just cycling. It’s about the brother and sisterhood of metal cycling to raise money for some very worthy causes – in this case, Nordoff Robbins, Teenage Cancer Trust, and Childline – to raise money for kids who need help. We’re doing that by putting our pedals to the metal with the great and good of the music industry – agents, managers, promoters, publicists, record labels, media organisations, and artists alike for a gruelling 164-mile bicycle ride leaving early from Alexandra Palace in North London on June 7th and arriving at Download Festival around midday on June 9th, just in time to see some bands.

It won’t be easy, but then nothing worthwhile ever is. There will be hills, heat, and hangovers, and it’ll take weeks of preparation to face the task ahead, but we are convinced that if there’s any community out there who’ll answer the call, it’s people like you.

Spread the word, and join us on Facebook and Twitter or make a donation. Just remember that it’s all in the name of Charity for the kids who need it the most.

Stay Metal.
