My story

 

Hi everyone,

Thanks for taking the time to have a look at my page and hopefully sponsering me.

This is my third go at cycling long distances to raise money for East Anglia Childrens Hospice. First the Pyrenees, last year from Aberystwyth back to Norwich and this time from Southampton to Newcastle which I have been told is uphill all the way.

This ride is over 6 days and around 400 miles, only 80 miles a day and it starts on the  25th June.  This year its Southampton,Marlborough,  Banbury, Nottingham, Hull, Stockton on Tees then finally Newcastle - I hope. 

The first tiime I raised £800, last year £1800 and this time I would like to beat that.  Please help me raise this money for what I think is a very brilliant cause providing enormous help to children throughout the East.
