Story
Hi & thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
UPDATE: WE DID IT! We rode through a blizzard at the top of one of the highest road passes in Europe, burnt 51,490 calories, sat in the saddle for 49.5hrs, cycled 1046km, climed 71,679ft (2.5 x height of Everest) and I broke my ass!
Look here for videos:
We ride to raise much needed support for Leuka, a Leukaemia charity based at London's Hammersmith Hospital. Leuka raises funds to support life-saving research into the causes and treatment of leukaemia and other blood disorders. Its goal is simple: to create a better future for patients both here in the UK and abroad. You can find out more about the charity here www.leuka.org.uk.
The ride is financed by the riders – I pay for my own flights, support, food, etc. – ALL YOUR DONATIONS GO DIRECT TO LEUKA.
I ride with the experience of Leukaemia recently hitting my family. I'm more determined than ever to raise money and awareness for Leuka's work and ask you to please dig deep to support Leuka and sponsor my ride. I need you to make all those freezing training rides in the snow this Winter worth it!
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Leuka 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.
So please sponsor me now!
Many thanks for your support.
