Fundraising for St John's Church, Hartley Wintney
Story
I'm always up for a challenge and the Hartley Wintney to bike ride certainly is one for me! I haven’t seriously been on a bike for over 30 years, so preparing for this is going to be something of a struggle. Hopefully, this is going to give me a good opportunity get fitter than I've been for a long time and more importantly be an enjoyable experience too. A chance of seeing some of the lovely countryside that we will be passing through on our way and spending some (quite a lot!) of time with friends, old and new, on the way.
On top of all of this, I am looking forward to raising a serious amount of money for the St John's church building project, as having been a member of St John’s church for around 15 years, I am certainly aware of the need for the proposed development. The new buildings being planned will provide much needed facilities for the ongoing work of the church, as well as provide a setting for a number of activities, both for the church and the village community, that don’t currently have a home.
So please support us as much as you can, as this is a very worthy cause and all of your contributions will give me and the other cyclists the impetus we need to continue our training and get us successfully through the trip.
