Story

  Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.

What is the biggest achievement in your life? they asked. Answer. This will be it! I've already committed to a training programm but it will be worth it. You can make it all the more worthwhile by sponsoring me so please dig deep and sponsor me online.

19/02/2007:-Training has been going well and off line donations are trickling in thanks to family, friends and works colleagues. I still need to raise a minimum of another £600 to reach my target and any donation, no matter how small, will be greatly appreciated. 

22/06/07..Completed the ride now. 431 miles in total. First two days were hard. Very hot and hilly but rest went well. Have passed my target now thanks to family, friends, contractors and especially to all my work colleagues at VOSA. I couldn't have done it without their support.

PS. If anyone else is thinking of doing it tackle as many hills as possible and take plenty of something for the poor old buttocks.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Marie Curie Cancer Care will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

There is still time to make donations if you wish. All contributions will go towards helping Marie Curie provide much needed nursing care!    

Many thanks for your support.

Regards

John.
