Story

<p>Thank you for visiting my Just Giving page</p> <p>This summer I will be part of a team of 14 Exeter University students <strong>cycling</strong> from London to Istanbul for Help for Heroes!!</p> <p>To put it simply, that's <strong>10 countries</strong> or <strong>4,400km</strong> in <strong>45 days</strong>...<strong>on a bike</strong>...<strong>in the heat of summer.</strong></p> <p>Guided by our 2 fantastic support drivers we will be covering an average of 120km per day taking us over The Alps (yes, over!), through Northern Italy, down the Adriatic Coast to reach Istanbul!</p> <p>A daunting challenge? A crazy idea? Maybe, but there are thousands of people doing a far more extraordinary and challenging thing in fighting for their country. Sadly&nbsp;<span style="font-family: Arial;">some of our heroes are living with injuries as a consequence of their service for life. </span></p> <p><span style="font-family: Arial;">"We may not be able to prevent our soldiers from being wounded, but together we can help them get better."</span></p> <p>Please help me to raise money for Help For Heroes</p> <p>Thank you very much!</p> <p>Kit</p>
