After many years of discussion and planning (with varying levels of training), my sister Andrea (Dennis) West and myself will be embarking on the challenge of cycling from John O’Groats to Lands’ End.

The End to End race (everyone loves a bit of sibling rivalry) will commence on the 23 March 2013 and we will be covering approx. 950 mile in 10 days.

We are lucky enough to have two support teams who will work in relay. For the first leg of the trip, which will take us from John O’Groats to Chester, our parents Bob and Charlotte will be in support. Once we have reached Chester, our other half’s Donna and Gregg will take over and help us the remaining distance to Land’s End.  The teams have been specially selected for their unique attribute that will aid our success, which have been detailed below….well they can all drive and offered to help!

We are riding for two charities the Lymphoma Association and CLEAR Unit (further details of the charity can be found at http://www.shs.brookes.as.ul/clear) and  therefore have set up two Just Giving pages, if you are reading this you have already found my page and you can find the other page by following the link below.

The charity that I chose to support is the Lymphoma Association who provide information and support to suffers and relatives of Lymphatic Cancers. This Charity is close to our hearts as a family member and close friend have both suffered from Lymphatic Cancer. They are both now well and we would like others to benefit from the support that the Lymphoma Association can offer. Further details of the charity can be found at http://www.lymphomas.org.uk/

All donations would be greatly received and we thank you in advance.
